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 Monday, workers 19. to be diligent for the first few days of the week in any case, before 20. a plateau and then slackening off.
