  • Title: Non-work-related movements in machine-paced and self-paced work: an industrial study.
    Author: Salvendy G, McCabe GP, Suominen S, Basila B.
    Journal: Appl Ergon; 1984 Mar; 15(1):21-3. PubMed ID: 15676497.
    Abstract:
    Non-work related movements (NWRM) of 10 experienced industrial workers performing light repetitive work were observed under a variety of conditions. More NWRM were observed for (1) machine-paced versus self-paced operations; and (2) a task with high mental load versus one with a low mental load. In addition, the age of the worker was found to be negatively correlated with NWRM.
