Kraepelin Test (English) Kraepelinscher Rechentest [Germany]

Japanese: クレペリン･テスト（英語表記）Kraepelinscher Rechentest[ドイツ]

A type of psychological test. The German psychiatrist Kraepelin recognized that there is a certain law between the amount of work and the elapsed time when humans continue to perform simple tasks, and after examining the factors that contribute to the amount of work performed by the method of continuous addition and the fluctuations per unit time, he published a paper titled "Work Curve" in 1902. In Japan, Narazaki Asataro and others adopted this method, and in 1924, Uchida Yuzaburo proposed a 30-minute method (15 minutes of work, 5 minutes of rest, 10 minutes of work), first examining people with mental disabilities and later the general public, exploring the relationship between personality types and the curve, and the relationship with mental disabilities, and developed it as an aptitude test (Uchida-Kraepelin Mental Work Test).

心理検査の一つ。ドイツの精神医学者クレペリンは，人間が単純な作業を継続した場合には，作業量と経過時間の間には一定の法則があることを認め，連続加算法による作業量と単位時間当りの変動に寄与する因子に考察を加え，1902年《作業曲線》という論文を発表した。日本では楢崎浅太郎らがこれを取り入れ，24年には内田勇三郎が30分法(15分施行，5分休憩，10分施行)を提唱し，初め精神障害者に，後に一般人について吟味し，性格類型と曲線の関係，精神障害との関係を追求し，適性検査として開発した(内田=クレペリン精神作業検査)。
