A Simulation Based Study On Visual Inspection Task Performance During Menstrual Cycle

Abstract

ABSTRACT This research was conducted to study women performances in visual inspection task during menstrual cycle. The participants were ten female students with regular cycle (28 days). Factory noise (80 dBA) that recorded from its original location was added to make the simulation area became more likely the real situation. The intervals observed were on the day 2, day 14, and day 23 of their cycle. Signal Detection Theory was used to measure the accuracy of inspection taskThe results revealed that menstrual cycle and noise presence affecting the accuracy (represent with sensitivity) but there were no interaction between those two factors (menstrual status and factory noise).
