The Effect of Cognitive Strain and Exercise at the Job Place on Heart Rate Variability
Öz
This study was
conducted on senior managers and computer engineers of a big corporate holding
in Istanbul. The goal of this study was to investigate and compare the effects
cognitive strain and exercise on heart rate variability. 30 people participated in the study. The
average age of the group (18 male and 12 female volunteers) was 37.4 ± SD.
Eleven senior managers (9 male and 2 female). and 19 computer engineers (9 male
and 10 female) participated in the study. Demographic and anthropometric data of
all participants were collected. Heart rate variability was recorded at four
sessions on two days seperated by a week. For the recording Polar S810i
telemetric heart rate watch was used (accuracy 1 ms). Each recording lasted one
hour. The time and frequency domain parameters of heart rate variability were
calculated by the Polar software. The non-parametrical Friedman test was used
for comparison of repeated measurement parameters of the whole group
(significance level p<0.05). In order to determine the difference between
categories the Mann-Whitney U test (significance level p<0.05) was applied.
Pearson correlation was for the correlation between the subjective stress scale
and heart rate variability (significance level p<0.05). Neither were there differences among the
various categories regarding the mean heart rate. But significant differences
were found between senior managers and computer engineers for heart rate
variability parameters. In this context HF high frequency power was the most
predictive parameter in favour of the computer engineers. There was no
significant correlation between a subjective stress scale and heart rate
variability parameters. In conclusion. the significant deterioration of heart
rate variability of the senior managers points to a heavy cognitive strain at
the job place.
