Abstract:
This chapter reviews a broad range of factors that, if controlled, might promote adaptation to nightwork, shiftwork, and extended workshifts. Systematic study has begun in four of the areas reported here: work schedule design, napping, bright light stimulation, and drugs. Physical activity, ambient temperature, diet, and individual behaviors have been studied only superficially.
