The 3 tasks were tracking with peripheral lights, the 5-choice task, and visual vigilance, in that order. The low-frequency noise had a beneficial effect upon all 3 tasks. It interacted with the mild heat on the tracking task and on false detections in the vigilance task. Results are related to behavioral arousal. When compared with a previous experiment on mild heat and loss of a night's sleep, performance in the control conditions was found to be influenced by the stresses included in the within-Ss experimental designs. This raises doubts about the validity of the interactions. (26 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
