Problems in the Selection of Personnel (Operators) for Closed Ecologic Systems and Prophylactic Measures for Neuropsychic Disorders (Voprosy Otbora Operatorov dlya Raboty v Ekologicheski Zamknutykh Sistemakh i Mery Profilaktiki Nervnopsikhicheskikh Zabolevanii),

Abstract

Cosmonauts, flyers, pilots, submarine operators, radar workers, and a host of other types of occupational workers must perform their work in ecologically closed systems. The very nature of the work, with the exception of the possibilities for direct interpersonal contacts and the effects of numerous external environmental stimuli, intensifies man's isolation in such occupations. In emergency situations where the communication network is disturbed or the automation fails, man finds himself in a critical situation of 'isolation'. Because of this situation, actual problems in the selection of personnel involved in working in ecologically closed systems and the prophylactic measures for the prevention of neuropsychic disorders are of current interest. The report is devoted to this subject.
