Aerospace Stress and Human Reliability
Abstract
Interaction with the external and internal environments is dependent on the information retrieval process. The interneuronal communication process essential to information retrieval and to cerebral integration generally has been the object of extensive study utilizing evoked field, focal, and extra- and intra-cellular unitary potentials as measures of synaptic output. In the process the investigators have worked out a means of checking adequacy of retrieval from association areas, which has enabled them to convert experimental findings into clinical test procedures able to assess 'breakdown point' in subjects without actually breaking them down. This could be modified so as to behaviorally detect drug abusers and, with modification, detect drug abuse and its lasting consequences.
