Abstract

It is often necessary to work under time constraints. Previous studies reported that a reasonable amount of time pressure can improve performance. However, they did not reveal what kind of pressure should be applied. This study investigated the ability of subjects to perform under time constraints and different kinds of pressure. We investigated work efficiency, cognitive judgment and the effect of time pressure on brain activity using an electrocardiogram (ECG) and functional near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). In this experiment, we used four types of time pressure. We applied each type of time pressure to subjects during the performance tests. For all performance tests, the results for auditory time pressure were better than those for no time pressure. In conclusion, we found that the subjects performed better when working under auditory time pressure.
