The effects of times of day on cognitive and visuo-motor performance efficiency.

Twenty-four male graduate volunteers were administered a battery of psychological tests--critical flicker fusion (CFF; alternate and simultaneous), reaction time (simple and choice), memory (forward and backward), and associative recall--to ascertain their performance capability during the different times of day. Each subject performed the tests on two occasions, once in the morning (10:00 h) and on the second occasion in the evening (15:00 h), on two successive days, following a statistically balanced design. Analysis of variance reflected superior performance on reaction time (choice) and memory (backward) in the evening and on associative recall in the morning. While no such effects were noticeable on CFF, appreciable changes in performance with the decreasing brightness level of its light sources was observed. Further work in this direction on a variety of cognitive tests and sensory functions under various times (more than two times) throughout the day is suggested.
