N2  - 28 male operators of earth movers, with an average age of 30 years, after chewing various quantities of betel not, volunteered to participate in a laboratory study of visual choice-reaction time, digit span, eye-hand coordination, pulse rate, and blood pressure. Analysis of variance identified a statistically significant increase in pulse rate only. Given no significant decrement in scores on any work-related measure discussion concerns the possible use of betel put at the work: place and particularly as an antidore for drivers fatigue. Limitations of the study, implications of the findings, and suggestions for research are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
