为了应对长期以来在定义和测量疲劳方面存在的问题，堪萨斯大学护理学院成立了疲劳管理生物行为研究中心，以促进对不同人群中疲劳的研究。这篇文章的目的是回顾过去定义和测量疲劳的努力，以及与当前使用的疲劳测量相关的概念性问题。确定了疲劳的几种不同特征和相应的测量方法，并讨论了疲劳研究的定义和框架。今后对疲劳的研究必须注意不同衡量标准之间的概念区别，以及最适合研究目标的疲劳衡量标准。
In response to a long history of problems with defining and measuring fatigue, the University of Kansas School of Nursing established a Center for Biobehavioral Studies of Fatigue Management to facilitate the study of fatigue in diverse populations. The purpose of this article is to review past efforts to define and measure fatigue and the conceptual problems relevant to currently used measures of fatigue. Several distinct characteristics and corresponding measures of fatigue are identified and a definition and framework for the study of fatigue are discussed. Future research on fatigue must attend to the conceptual distinctions among various measures and the measures of fatigue most appropriate to the goals of a study.
