Abstract

PURPOSE: We investigated the relationship between personality, music type and MVIC, power for the knee extensor on inducing muscle fatigue. METHODS: The subjects of this study were 22 healthy students. MVIC(Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contraction) and power in knee extension was measured by PRIMUS RS. Personality types was measured by MBTI(Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) that is an instrument designed to provide descriptive profiles of personality types and preferences. The collected data were analyzed using the independent t-test, MANOVA and Pearson-test. RESULTS: There was no significant differences both MVIC and power of the knee extensor according to personality and music type. The power was significantly increased by increasing the MVIC during a knee extension on inducing muscle fatigue without music type(r= .786∼.896). There was no significant correlation both MVIC and power of the knee extensor according to personality.
