在休闲活动中暴露在阳光下会引起疲劳。我们采用了先进的连线测试（ATMT），最近开发的一种客观的方法来评估大脑功能的性能，用于测量精神疲劳，客观确定疲劳的发展所造成的太阳照射到人体。首先，消费者意识的调查进行，和疲劳的发展，从阳光照射，一般认为在夏季和春季。在现场试验中，15名男性（26-41岁）每天接受相当于100 kJ m-2紫外线辐射3 - 4次的太阳照射，持续3天，在此期间，受试者穿着短袖衬衫和短裤，并用毛巾遮住头部。与没有实验性日光照射的对照周期间的那些时间段相比，在日光照射后的所有3天的晚上和没有日光照射的第4天以及第3天和第4天的早晨观察到主观疲劳感的得分显著增加。ATMT平均值在第一天和第二天的晚上以及第三天和第四天的早上显著增加。此外，在接触期间还观察到体温和心率增加。主观感觉的多元回归分析结果表明，日晒引起的疲劳与对照周有质的不同。这些结果表明，大脑功能表现下降后，太阳照射疲劳的发展。ATMT的结果可能有助于量化和客观评价太阳照射引起的精神疲劳，沿着防晒产品的开发，以防止太阳引起的疲劳。
Sun exposure during leisure activity evokes fatigue. We employed the Advanced Trail Making Test (ATMT), a recently developed objective method of evaluating brain function performance used to measure mental fatigue, for objective determination of fatigue development caused by solar exposure to the human body. First, a survey of consumer awareness was performed, and fatigue development from solar exposure was generally recognized in both summer and spring. In the field test, 15 males (26-41 years old) received sun exposure equivalent to 100 kJ m-2 of ultraviolet radiation three to four times each day for 3 days, during which the subjects wore a short sleeve shirt and a short pant, and covered their head with a towel. A significant increase in scores for subjective sense of fatigue was observed in the evening of all 3 days following sun exposure and on the fourth day, which had no exposure, as well as in the morning of the third and fourth days, as compared with those periods during the control week, which did not have experimental solar exposure. ATMT showed a significant increase in average value in the evening of the first and second days following sun exposure, as well as in the morning of the third and fourth days. In addition, increases in body temperature and heart rate were observed during the exposure periods. The results of multiple regression analysis of subjective feelings showed that fatigue caused by solar exposure was qualitatively different from that in the control week. These results suggest that brain function performance declined following solar exposure as did fatigue development. ATMT results may be useful for quantitative and objective evaluation of mental fatigue caused by sun exposure, along with development of sun care products for the prevention of solar-caused fatigue.
