Summary Results from a measurement of the neutron spin-dependent structure functiong 1 n (x) over a range inx from 0.03 to 0.6 and withQ 2>1 (GeV/c)2 are presented. The experiment consisted of scattering a longitudinally polarized electron beam from the Stanford Linear Accelerator off a polarized3He target and detecting scattered electrons in two magnetic spectrometers. The results are interpreted in the quark-parton model and used to test the Bjorken sum rule.
