An Overview on Studies of Stress State Affect

Abstract

Stress is a multidimensional concept and it always shapes our performances. An individual strive to overcome with this stress by the help of technology. But in one hand where the technology has provided the acuity and sharpness to human performance on the other hand it has also engendered ample amount of stress for users.The current review focuses on stress and how it affects the human performance. The human experience of stress and the outcome of their task performance often are tightly linked because tasks itself create stress without the addition of any external stressor. So, present review clarifies this strain effect in term of transitory states of stress. This review comprises of effects of mind‟s transitory states on discriminability and prolongs awareness in tasks. Many researches had been done to explain the effect of task stress and individual‟s strain which induced by task, but none was able to present a general model that could account for all of the various results and prevent the performance decrement. Therefore the current review is an attempt to appraise these works which describes stress as multidimensional states of stress which play crucial role during performances.For each string, founding scientific articles, researches and contemporary empirical developments are quoted that demonstrate the range of novelty and technical innovations that has taken place.Many contemporary concepts like techno-stress, task stress, and strain effects are rooted in this manuscript. This review provides a new dimension to think. The relation between stress and performance is well-known to us but this literature review identified the strain factors during task.The current review represents the facts and strain importance in which the human performance takes place most accurate and robust. At last this review shed on the issues of stress-states and vigilance as well as automation and provides new perspective to vigilance researches because the technological intensification can be seen in various types of applied tasks for example transportation, medical monitoring, sonar and radar operations as well as in manufacturing industries sector etc.Moreover, this review is also to attract human factors and ergonomics researchers to design a system that to be stress-free as possible for the user.
