This is the official account of the experiments carried out at the
Hawthorne Works of the Eastern Electric Company in Chicago. These
were divided into test room studies, interviewing studies and
observational studies. The test room studies were experiments into
what variables in a workplace environment might affect worker
fatigue. The findings of these tests led to extensive interviewing
on the attitudes of the workers. The final phase of the Hawthorne
experiment focused on social factors, using techniques of cultural
anthropology to observe small working groups. The results of these
experiments profoundly influenced the Human Relations movement.
