Objective evaluation of fatigue by event-related potentials

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between mental fatigue and event-related potentials (ERPs). Six healthy men (mean age: 22 years old) performed a simple calculation for 6 h. Auditory ERPs were recorded before and after the calculating task. The scores of subjective fatigue symptoms were significantly increased, and P300 latency of auditory ERPs was significantly prolonged by the calculating task (P<0.05). We suggest that the recording of ERPs may be useful for the objective evaluation of mental fatigue.
