Description
Presenting research from four countries, this special issue represents a cross-section of aviation-related research utilizing psychophysiological methods. With a primary focus on pilot workload and fatigue, the articles represent both research and test and evaluation environments. The research reported covers a wide range of psychophysiological measures consisting of indications of cardiac activity (ECG), eye movements and blinks (EOG), brain activity (EEG), electrodermal activity (EDA), respiration changes, blood pressure fluctuations, and cortisol levels. Overall, the articles characterize the state of the art in flight psychophysiology and indicate how psychophysiological information may help improve the safety and efficiency of future flight operations.
