[Psychophysiologic pattern of pilot's activity during flight as a basis for setting up his workplace].
The psychophysiological pattern of a pilot is considered on the basis of experiments made during flights. Five components of his activity, which may be estimated, are identified. These include sensory, motor, autonomic, occupational, and psychological components. The "reserves of attention" are singled out as an objective independent parameter that characterizes the activity of a pilot. Five determinants of the level of physiological responses are identified in a pilot during flight. Their mechanisms are most efficiently analyzed in terms of the basic concepts developed by P.K. Anokhin, P.V. Simonov, K.V. Sudakov. The objective activity estimates make it possible to assess the adequacy of a working place to the problems to be solved, to apply the anthrocentric principle in working out the pilot's working place by taking into account his psychophysiological capacities.
