Abstract
The fatigue complaints (subjective symptoms) of workwomen and housewives bringing up their infants were investigated by Japanese Fatigue Feeling Scale (30 items).
The results were as follows :
1) In the morning, the average rates of fatigue complaints of workwomen (office workers and nurses) are similar to those of housewives. But in the night, the average rates of fatigue complaints of workwomen are higher than those of housewives.
2) Both in the morning and the night, the average rates of fatigue complaints of women bringing up baby (0-year old) are higher than those of women bringing up infants (aged from 1 to 3).
3) Both in the morning and the night, the average rates of fatigue complaints of women who work 10 hr over are higher than those of the other workwomen.
