Abstract

In general, mental fatigue refers to the phenomenon of declining ability of human perception, memory, attention and other cognitive caused by insufficient sleep, biological rhythm disorders or long time focusing. The main research work of this paper is as follows: Make a research on the reasonable way to induce mental fatigue. The volunteers in fatigue group continuously operate 140 min number “2-back” task, while the volunteers in normal group only operate “2-back” task at the first and last 10 min. Subjects’ task performance and ERP component are compared between the first 10 min and the last 10 min. The dynamic change of task performance and ERP component was studied. The results confirmed that 140 min “2-back” task successfully induces mental fatigue.
