Methodology for designing psychological habitability for the space station.
Psychological habitability is a critical quality issue for the International Space Station because poor habitability degrades performance shaping factors (PSFs) and increases human errors. However, habitability often receives rather limited design attention based on someone's superficial tastes because systematic design procedures lack habitability quality. To improve design treatment of psychological habitability, this paper proposes and discusses a design methodology for designing psychological habitability for the International Space Station.
