Abstract

This paper describes an evaluation of mental workload of a professional who has a lot of on-board experience (Captain, unlimited licensed mariner). We evaluate their performance using a ship handling simulator, and ascertain their mental workload based on salivary amylase activity. We show the effect of physiological indices named "Salivary Amylase Activity: SAA index" for their performance and characteristics of mental workload. In this paper, we confirm whether the response to their performance for the ship handling is clear or not. The research of mariner using SAA index is the first challenge through worldwide.
