The 12-hour work day: a 48-hour, eight-day week
Article Abstract:
This investigation examined police officers' responses to a change from a forward rotating 8-hour-shift schedule to a 12-hour compressed shift schedule. As predicted, significant improvements were observed in the areas of schedule-related interference with personal activities, work-schedule attitudes, general affect, and stress and fatigue. In addition, organizational effectiveness improved, but general work attitudes remained unchanged. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)

Sons of Wall Street Week
Article Abstract:
A survey of television business shows is presented. Television networks had long avoided business shows, thinking few viewers would be attracted because of the subject's nonvisual nature. But new technology has led to more specialized programming. Although there are obvious differences in the ways newspapers and television report business news, both provide fairly thorough coverage. Individual analyses of all the new, and old, television business programs are included.
