Cochran, Barbara J. – Research Quarterly, 1975
In this study, it was determined that the fatigue state of the learner had a favorable influence on both performance and learning of certain novel motor skills. (JS)

Clarke, David H. – Research Quarterly, 1978
Greater control of the muscular fatigue process is afforded by regulation of energy expenditure through monitoring the rate of contraction rather than by varying the duration of contraction. (Author)

Michael, Ernest D., Jr.; Katch, Victor – Research Quarterly, 1977
While running up an incline at a speed chosen by themselves, subjects apparently will perceive the work effort to be the same as running on the level, when in fact it is costing them more energy. (MM)

Morris, Alfred F. – Research Quarterly, 1977
Results suggest that severe muscular fatigue adversely affects total reflex time, especially the peripheral muscular component. (MM)

Ordway, George A.; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1977
During a rhythmic, all-out task, the rates of fatigue experienced by elbow flexor and knee extendor muscle groups tend to differ, with the elbow flexors fatiguing more rapidly initially, but reaching a plateau at a relatively higher level than the knee extensors. (Author)

Caplan, Calvin S. – Research Quarterly, 1976
This study investigated the question as to whether or not fatigue produced by performance of heavy physical work involving the legs would transfer to and impair following performance that utilized the muscles of the arms; under certain exercises and conditions transfer was found to take place. (JD)

Kroll, Walter; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1980
There is a degree of uniqueness in fatigue patterns, particularly between different levels of absolute maximum strength. Caution should be used when analyzing fatigue curves among subjects with unspecified strength levels. (CJ)
