Resumen:
The paper analyzes the reception in Argentina of fatigue's research, produced both in Europe and United States (Dockeray, 1920; Strong, 1913, 1914, Seashore, 1904; Squire, 1903; Thorndike, 1900a, 1900b, 1912; Viteles, 1926; Whiting & English, 1923; Yoakum, 1909). Then, original research on fatigue in Argentina are examined, specially the contributions of Alfredo Palacios and Horacio Rimoldi. Those works are analyzed in the context of the development of psychotechics, which strongly increased in the whole country and which reached its majors contributions in the decade of 1940.
