Scoping Review on Measurement Tool for Work Fatigue
Abstract
Measurement tools for assessing work fatigue are very diverse and developed according to research needs. The are several measurements that widely used to address or find out the work fatigue in industries. This research is a scoping review of “Swedish Occupational Fatigue Inventory”, “The Multidimensional Work Fatigue Inventory”, “Fatigue Severity Scale”, “Fatigue Assessment Scale”, “Short Form 36 Vitality Subscale”, and “The Occupational Fatigue Exhaustion Recovery Scale (OFER). This was reported under the guidance of PRISMA extension for Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR). This study shows an inconsistency in use of measurement tools, even though researchers argue for practicality. The large number of studies on work fatigue allows confusion of researchers to choose a measurement tool for work fatigue that is suitable for the research population. This research helps other to describe various measurement tools of work fatigue that are often used globally. Further research can determine the measurement tool of fatigue according to needs and some considerations of advantages to be more accurate.
