Bibliographical Note on Behavioral Aspects: On the Margin of the 50th Anniversary of the Minnesota Starvation-Nutritional Rehabilitation Experiment

Abstract

The principal technical aim of this note is to bring together bibliographic information on the papers dealing with the behavioral aspects of the study and published both before and, in particular, after the appearance in print of the two-volume treatise on The Biology of Human Starvation by Keys, et al. in 1950, which provides a systematic, comprehensive account. The communications fall into three categories: methods, results, and overviews. The section on results is concerned primarily with the effects on personality.
