RESEARCH ON HARASSMENT SCHEDULING.

Abstract

A physiological and behavioral monitoring system was developed for the laboratory simulation and analysis of harassment effects. The feasibility of the system was demonstrated by experimentation in which the effects of four harassment schedules were examined. Those harassment schedules studied were periodic ones in which harassment was applied every half hour, every hour, every hour and one-half, or every two hours, for a 48-hour period. Data trends suggest that harassment at the one-hour rate is that most productive of inappropriate behavior. The high level of subject performance obtained, the reliability of the techniques developed, and the agreement of the data collected with facts previously reported in the literature, suggest that the simulation technique developed is a significant device for screening the relative effects of various harassment treatments prior to field testing.
