Military accidents are often associated with stress and depressive psychological conditions among soldiers, and they often fail to adapt to military life. Therefore, this study analyzes whether there are differences in EEG and pulse wave indices between general soldiers and three groups of soldiers who have not adapted to military life and are at risk of accidents. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire and a device that can measure EEG and pulse waves, and data analysis was performed using SPSS. The results showed that the concentration level and brain activity indices were higher in the general soldiers and the soldiers in the first stage of accident risk. The body stress index was higher for each stage of accident risk, and the physical vitality index was higher for general soldiers. Therefore, it can be seen that soldiers who have not adapted to military life and are at risk of accidents have somewhat lower concentration and brain activity than general soldiers, and have symptoms of stress and lethargy. The results of this study will contribute to reducing human accidents through EEG and pulse wave measurements not only in the military but also in occupations with a high risk of accidents such as construction.
军事事故往往与士兵的压力和抑郁心理状况相关,他们常常难以适应军事生活。因此,本研究分析了普通士兵与三组未适应军事生活且有事故风险的士兵在脑电图(EEG)和脉搏波指标上是否存在差异。使用问卷和可测量EEG及脉搏波的设备进行数据收集,并使用SPSS进行数据分析。结果显示,普通士兵和处于事故风险第一阶段的士兵的注意力集中水平和大脑活动指标更高。事故风险各阶段的身体压力指标更高,普通士兵的身体活力指标更高。因此,可以看出,未适应军事生活且有事故风险的士兵的注意力和大脑活动比普通士兵略低,并有压力和倦怠症状。本研究结果将有助于不仅在军事领域,而且在建筑等高事故风险职业中,通过EEG和脉搏波测量减少人为事故。
