The results of studies of the longitudinal electron polarization in the AmPS storage ring at NIKHEF are reported. The ring was operated using a partial Siberian snake at the first magic energy, and a full Siberian snake between 440 MeV and 720 MeV. The effect of high beam currents in the ring was investigated, and it was found that some of the electron polarization is lost if the beam current becomes larger than {approx}120 mA.
