Abstract
The concept of perceived exertion was introduced by Gunnar Borg about 25 years ago. Since then methods have been developed by evaluate the intensity of perceived exertion in various kinds of work situations and exercise. Particular topics covered in this volume are the theoretical, physiological, clinical and ergonomical aspects of perceived exertion. There is also a section on sports aspects. The research is of great value in many applications including clinical diagnosis, therapy and rehabilitation - expecially cardiac rehabilitation - and ergonomics applied to industrial situations in evaluations of work strain and manual materials handling.
