Summary of research issues in monitoring of mental and perceptual-motor performance and stress in space.
This article describes the papers presented in the workshop that cover the monitoring of stress and perceptual-motor performance. Monitoring is necessary for early detection and intervention of individual and group stress, especially on long-term missions. Test batteries will need to be developed that provide diagnostic information about the cause of deficits so that countermeasures can be applied.
