Psychology Professor Will Discuss Results Oi Fatigue Experiments
Proof that the effects of fatigue brought on by sleeplessness can be successfully overcome by Increased concentration effort will be given by Dr. Nell Warren, assistant professor of psychology, this afternoon at 4:30 o’clock when he delivers the seventh of the regular Wednesday lectures in ths Doheny library.
His talk, "Studies of Experimental Insomnia," will be in part a recapitulation of recent investigation conducted by the psychology department, which disclosed that no accurate compilation could be made of the effects of fatigue because of this fact—that a speeding-up process is Instituted by the individual to combat subjective fatigue. Tiie only real measurement of effect was the recording of the number of "blocks," or periods when the tested subject could not respond immediately.
STUDENTS? SELECTED
In order to conduct this experiment, four students were selected by Dr. Warren to undergo a long series of test*. These students went without sleep for #5 haul's from 5:30 a.m. on Friday until 10:30 p.m. Sunday. They were constantly under surveilanc*. Besides Dr. Warren, 15 graduate and under-graduate atudenta kept watch over the four, and carried on the various tests prescribed.
Not only were the subjects put to addition and subtraction tests, color naming, and word association —they were recorded for defect of speech, reading, writing, and color vision. Every 10 hours this procedure was repeated to determlna the change, lf any, wrought by continued lack of rest.
RESULTS TOLD
Charts made as result of this experimentation showed that after loss of 40 hours of sleep the control subject had about two and one half times as many "blocks," or faltering periods In naming colors as ln the beginning. But, that as the end of the test neared, the subjects Were able to compensate for Increased fatigue by Increased effort.
The color charts used were composed of seven colors with 140 squares blocked ln each. The students were asked to name the colors Indicated as rapidly as passible. GAMES PLAYED
During the first 24 hours games were played by the restless subjects with "Monopoly" proving the most popular. During the last 40 hours though, they couldn't seJ,Ue down to games. In fact, according to Dr. Warren, they couldn't do much of anything consistently, as they became Irritable and easily disturbed.
In order to keep the four awake during the last few hour* of the tests it was necessary to walk them around the block, and from the psychology laboratory to the optometry clinic. Approximately four ov five hour* out of every 10 hour* each of the studenu spent undergoing tests.
