Abstract

24 subjects were tested to check the hypothesis proposed by Kleitman about a “basic rest-activity cycle”. Reaction time tasks were delivered at 10-min. intervals for 320 min. Spectral density function analyses showed no significant periods within the limits of the cycle. Discussion concerns fulfilling assumptions of spectral analysis and Fisher's test.
