\"The purpose of this study was to analyze the auditory stress influence of caused by working on an auditory assistant computer on neck and shoulder muscle fatigue, pressure pain threshold, and subjective fatigue. The subjects of this study were 51 people with visual impairment in the first and second disabled grade at the school for the blind located in Seoul. To identify the influence of the auditory stress caused by the computer work, muscle fatigue, pressure pain threshold and subjective fatigue were measured after conducting the computer work for an hour. Findings suggested that the blind computer workers, in the conclusion, are so highly influenced to the method of auditory access to information as those sighted workers to the other of visual access, such as monitor-related factors. In particular, when the headset with high level auditory stress was used for the computer work, the muscle fatigue and subjective fatigue increased, and the pressure pain threshold decreased.
Key words : computer work, the blind, muscle fatigue, pressure pain threshold\"
