Abstract

Quantifying time-on-task is important in many areas, but is of considerable importance to researchers considering the relationships between exposure and injury risk. This paper describes the method used to develop a generic data collection, storage and retrieval program for measuring time-on-task. The program uses hypertext markup language, javaScript and Perl to provide an easily navigated computer interface for recording exposure variables on a tablet style computer (laptop). This method allows for data collection in the field and provides several benefits over traditional methods of data capture. This utility may have application in a range of research areas including education and skill acquisition, in addition to providing a precise measure of exposure to high-risk environments.
