Uchida-Kraepelin performance test Tips

Uchida-Kraepelin performance test and "work volume"

The inspection form for the Uchida-Kraepelin performance test has 116 numbers per line.
The work of the Uchida-Kraepelin performance test is to add the numbers next to each other, so if you complete one line, you will have worked 115 times.
In the main inspection of the Uchida-Kraepelin performance test, the line is changed every minute, but if the line is reached before the command is issued, the rule is to move to the next line as it is.
If you move to the next line and get a command when you can calculate 5 pieces, it means that you could calculate 120 pieces per minute.

By the way, when it comes to how much "ordinary people" work per minute, the average number of Japanese people is around 60.
The distribution of the "Average workload" of Japanese people, which is the total work load divided by 30 minutes, is about 60% for 50-74 pieces and about 40% for 55-69 pieces.
In other words, if you enter this area, you can say that it is a "normal amount of work".

Various studies have been conducted on the workload of the Uchida-Kraepelin performance test.

First, looking at the workload distribution of a group of the same age group, it is a graph like a normal distribution, in which the number of people who are close to the Average workload is overwhelmingly large, and the number decreases as the distance increases, rather than evenly existing.
When trying to find the "The right person in the right place", the more work is done, the better it is. Especially when using it in a company, there is a range of necessary and sufficient work amount for the situation and business purpose, and the work Mismatches are more likely to occur if the amount is too large or too small.

The Average workload considerably depending on the country or region, and it is estimated that it is affected by the tempo of life depending on the degree of economic development.
Looking at the data of examinees so far (* Note that it does not mean the entire country or region), the Average workload is 55 to 61 in Japan, South Korea, the coastal areas of China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, and 41 in Southeast Asia and India. It is ~ 46 pieces.

When comparing with countries and regions, it is important to look at the distribution as well as the average value. For example, it can be seen from the above graph that if the top 20% of ASEAN human resources work is collected, it exceeds the average value of Japanese people by 10%.

In addition, changes in the amount of work according to age are also being studied, and it is known that the amount of work increases steadily as a child grows up, and that the increase stops in about 30s as an adult.
Specifically, the Average workload by the Japanese group of 15 to 16 years old is about 40, but it grows rapidly as it grows and reaches 60 in the group of 22 years old. From this point, the growth slows down, and in the group of 30s, it keeps close to 65, but after that, it gradually declines.
From here, you can see the child's development process and measure the growth of new employees.

Studies in the field of transportation show that when comparing the high-work group and the low-work group, the low-work group is more likely to cause an accident.
