PERFORMANCE, RECOVERY AND MAN-MACHINE EFFECTIVENESS.

Abstract

The report describes the organization and goals of the research team with a detailed account of the experimentation that has been completed within its two basic subefforts: those of organizational and motivational emphasis and those of environmental emphasis, as they affect performance and recovery of human operations. The experimentation within organizational and motivational emphasis cover organization structure investigations, approach-avoidance conflict experimentation, the effect of dietary habits on performance and recovery, instructional ambiguity and its effects on performance, and vigilance behavior and cognition experimentation. The subteam projects within the environmental emphasis area include human performance and recovery under vibratory conditions, physical loading, ionization, and climatic conditions. The facilities and personnel are discussed and 12 papers delivered or published are listed. (Author)
