【试题连线】…………………………….… 【选项分析】……………………………..….
In1924 Awerica's National Research Council
sent two engineers to surpervise a series of
experiments at a telephone-parts factory called the
Hawthorne Plant near Chicago.It hoped they would
learn how shop-floor lighting 1 workers'
productivity. Instead, the studies ended 2 giving
their name to the “Hawthorne effect，”the extremely
influential idea that the very 3 of being
experimented upon changed subjects' behavior.
The idea arose because of the 4 behavior of the woman in the plant.
According to 5 of the experimenteda,their
hourly output rose when lighting was increased ,but
also when it was dimmed.It did not 6 what was
done in the experiment； 7 something was
changed ,productivity rose ,A(n) 8 that were
being experimented upon seemed to be 9 to alter workers' behavior 10 itself.After several
decades, the same data were 11 to econometric
analsis.
The Hawthorne experiments had another
surprise in stone. 12 the descriptions on record, no
systematic 13 was found that levels of
productivity were related to changes in lighting.
It turns out that the peculiar way of conducting
the experiments may have led to 14
interpretations of what happened. 15 , lighting was
always changed on a Sunday.When work started again on Monday ,output 16 rose compared with the previous Saturday and 17 to rise for the next couple of days. 18 , a comparison with data for
weeks when there was no experimentation showed that output always went up on Mondaya. Workers
19 to be diligent for the first few of the week in any
case, before 20 a plateau and then slackening off.
This suggests that the alleged “Hawthorne effect” is
hard to pin down.
