Abstract

This experiment is based on the negative priming paradigm by using a Stroop like material (Dalrymple-Alford et Budayr, 1966) to study an inhibitory functional deficit in 3 X 8 alternating shiftworkers. The results revealed a deficit in the inhibitory mechanism when 3 X 8 and 2 X 8 ex 3 X 8 alternating shiftworkers were compared with 2 X 8 alternating shiftworkers. These results make necessary to develop further studies on the effects of the 3 X 8 alternating shiftwork on the information processing system, that focus on attentional processes.
