Abstract
The rote learning ability of human subjects under conditions of sensory deprivation for 48 hours was compared with results for a control group. The performance of the two groups was essentially the same. No significant facilitation or decrement in performance was noted, and in no instance were hallucinations, delusions, or other unusual phenomena reported.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
