Circadian temporal structure of 20 shift workers (8-hour shift-weekly rotation): An autometric field study

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Forschungsberichte Des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen ((FOLANW))

Abstract

In spite of a rapidly growing number of pertinent and interesting studies (1 – 24) most of the effects of shift work on physiological, circadian rhythms (human circadian temporal structure (25 – 27)) still need investigating using chronobiologic methods (25 – 28).
