Anthropometry
is one part of
that support
Ergonomics,
especially
the design of
an apparatus
based on the
principles of
Ergonomics.
Ergonomics
is the science,
technology
and art to
combine
tools, work methods and
environment
on the ability,
skill and
human limits
in order to obtain
working conditions
and healthy environment,
safe,
comfortable and
efficient
in order to achieve optimal
productivity. This study
aimed to the relationship
between
the level of ergonomic
chairs
with a concentration level
of student learning at the
X junior high school in
Banjarbaru.
Survey
research methods, by
cross sectional
were analyzed
descriptively and analytically.
The population of
all students
in the
seventh grade in X
junior high school
190 were
students. Sample of
82
students randomly selected
using
systematic random sampling technique.
Consists
of class
VII as
much as 5 classes.
Each
class of 16 students
taken
obtained from the
calculation 82
divided by
5
classes. The average number
of students
for each
class were 38
students.
For the sample
interval
was 2,
obtained
from the calculation of
38
students divided by
16 students.
Figures
initial sample
was first
class
attendance VIIa,
and
subsequent sample
numbers
plus the numbers
were
multiples of the free
2. Independent variable was
ergonomics level
seats.
The dependent variable was

anthropometric data.
Results that 56%
seats or
6:29 that
students used an
ergonomic chair.

had a
good concentration of
as many as
84
students or
51.85%,
and students who had
poor concentration
78
students or
48.15%.
Chi Square test that
there was
a significant relationship
between the level of
ergonomic chairs
with a concentration level
of student learning
at X junior high school
Banjarbaru.
Students who
use
ergonomic chairs,
in concentrations
higher
than students using
unergonomics seat.
Suggestions
doing research
in the
field of ergonomics by
using different variables
such as
students level of fatigue,
subjective

or
comfortable.
