技能工의 身體反應時間과 作業能率 向上을 위한 그 理論의 適用 硏究

Abstract

Reaction time is one of the limiting factors in the performance of all skills. Although comparatively little work has been attempted on reaction time in relation to skilled technicians, a vast literature on the subject exists in the field of experimental psychology. Basically, reaction time can be considered under two categories: (a) simple reaction time, and (b) choice reaction time. However, in the present study, a consideration has only been made on the choice reaction time relating to the aptitude of skilled workers. The purpose of the study was primarily to determine the relationship between the whole body choice reaction time and the aptitude of skilled workers. The subjects were 27 male students of a technical high school in Seoul. The whole Body Reaction Timer (TKK 1264-I) was used to measure the choice reaction time. Also, the Skilled Worker's Aptitude Test developed by the Korean Society of Industrial Psychology was used to conduct the aptitude test among skilled workers. From the analysis of the data collected, the following conclusions would be drawn: 1) There is no significant relationship between reaction time and overall. aptitude test of the skilled technicians sampled for the study. 2) There is a significant negative relationship between the movement time and location on the aptitude test of skilled technicians. 3) There is a significant negative relationship between the responsive time and block identification on the apittude test of skilled technicians.
