Description: The primary purpose of this research has been to quantify, describe, and compare circadian parameters of oral temperature, pulse, sleepiness, activation, short-term memory, adding speed, finger counting, and tapping found in laboratory studies with values found in the usual work-rest activity habitat of subjects for the same measures. This study also investigated the diurnal patterns of reading performance.

The goal was to obtain quantitative and statistically validated parametric descriptors from and autorhythmometric study of the temporal structure in performance for a better evaluation of autorhythmometry and the extablishment of chronopsychology in education.
