| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Seafarers need to pay attention to the conservation of the sea environment while safely transporting people, goods (materials) and property (ships). It is especially considered that their mental burden on the ship maneuvering work is much great.
The purpose of this study is that young seafarers can adopt the same maneuvering method by recognizing the timing when veteran seafarers recognize the factors of mental workload in maneuvering. I think that my study will contribute to the education of seafarers. To evaluate the mental workload quantitatively, this study adopted the concentration of nitrate ion in saliva. To develop the original measuring device, we newly found a new saliva-resistant polymer component of the device.

本研究にかかる実験を通して、従来のものよりもデバイス表示値のドリフト現象の逓減が見られる新たなデバイスを開発できた。そのデバイスは唾液から唾液を選択する性能は従来のものと変わらなかった一方で、ドリフトに強いといった特性を持つため、操船時のみならず日常業務時における心的負荷を測定するものが開発されたと考える。
そういった観点では本研究は、船舶運航に従事する船員を対象にするのみならず、一般の人々を対象に今後出てくる日常的なメンタル変動を掴むといったヘルスケアデバイスの一つの参照結果を示せたと考える。
