To investigate their effect on perceived seating discomfort, three different secondary tasks were investigated. Participants (N=45) had to rate their subjective overall discomfort feeling using the CP-50 scale directly after sitting down and from there on every five minutes for a duration of 50 minutes. Additionally, the overall discomfort for the whole experiment was rated after a five minute phase of movement. Concerning the secondary task, three groups (no secondary task; passive secondary task; active secondary task) were formed and each participant was randomly assigned to one group. No significant differences ( textgreater 0.05) were found in the perceived discomfort of the three groups and in the recalled discomfort rating after the five minutes of movement of the different groups.     «
