Part I - Illumination Experiments (1924-27) These experiments were performed to find out the effect of different levels of illumination (lighting) on productivity of labour. The brightness of the light was increased and decreased to find out the effect on the productivity of the test group. Surprisingly‚ the productivity increased even when the level of illumination was decreased. It was concluded that factors other than light were also important.

sampling method is the scientific procedure of selecting those sampling units which would provide the required estimates with associated margins of uncertainity‚ arising from examining only a part and not the whole. Methods of Sample Selection Simple Random Sampling In this method each item of the data ( population) has the same probability of being selected in the sample. The selection is usually made with the help of random numbers. * Suppose there are N=850 students in a school from which

With that being said‚ it shows you the mindset of the people during that time. People were laid back and were
