In view of the neurotoxic effect of CS2, psychodiagnostic methods of examination seem to be very suitable for the early detection of that effect. In 1985 we applied those methods to 61 workers of a synthetic-fibre plant exposed to CS2. According to the findings, the examination results were divided into three categories. A comparison was made between them and the PNF findings. Another 38 workers exposed to CS2 were examined in 1987, 20 examinations of which were follow-ups. The findings suggest that it does not seem sufficient just to apply the PNF questionnaire method to detect CS2-related health damage in workers to a satisfactory extent. It is recommended that in job-fitness and regular occupational-health examinations additional methods be applied to supplement the PNF with regard to workers exposed to CS2 levels exceeding the workplace limit values.
