Interdisciplinary Studies on the Combat Readiness and Health Issues Faced by Military Personnel

Abstract

The goal of this research project was twofold. Task number 1: Assemble a multimodal human performance laboratory that includes a complex human motor assessment system, 128 channel electroencephalogram/event-related potential system, a pupilometer/eye-tracking system, and a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation system. Task number 2: Conduct a pilot research study demonstrating the capabilities of performing multimodal assessment of object retrieval, particularly when those objects may be considered threatening or nonthreatening. Task 1 has been completed and was reported on previously. The pilot study (Task 2) has not yet been completed.
