“…In the second study (6), six subjects were conftied for 15idays in a simulated space compartment, under a four-hour-on-duty, two-hour-off-duty (4-2) schedule. Also, two five-man crews were confined for 30 days on a four-hour-on-duty, fourhour-off-duty (4-4) schedule.…”

Field and laboratory confinement studies were reviewed to evaluate existing information and to identify areas where future researcdh is needed. The studies reviewed deal with confining two or more people in a restricted space for a prolonged period of time: particular attention was devoted to how such conditions degrade performance. Few of the studies bear on the Army's chief interest in confinement: how men will perform during and after prolonged confinement in armored vehicles. The review concludes by recommending ways to make future studies of confinement more directly relevant to the Army's interest.

“…Notable among these have been reports relating to the effects of immobilization by way of a plaster cast (Dietrick et al. 1948), studies of bedrest (Birkhead et al, 1963;Miller et al, 1964aMiller et al, , 1964b, the effects of confinement in special rooms (Alluisi et al, 1963;Hanna et al, 1963;Lebedinsky et al, 1964). Perhaps more closely related to space missions have been studies of submarine confinement (Fawcett and Newman, 1953;Weybrew, 1963) and in space-cabin simulators (Celentano et al, 1963;Lawton et al, 1964;Grodsky and Bryant, 1962;Hanna, 1962;.…”

“…Obviously, such a fixed pattern of work responsibility could lead to the formation of two or more subgroups whose goals and interests might eventually conflict with over-all mission goals. Adams and Chiles (1960), Alluisi et al (1963), Hartman and Cantrell (1967), and Chiles et al (1968) all reported that rotating shifts which led to frequent disruption of circadian cycles were associated with irritability and some impairment of performance. Nevertheless, the data of Alluisi et al (1963) suggested that with proper control of selection and motivational factors, crews could "work effectively for periods of at least two weeks and probably longer using a schedule of 4 h on duty and 2 h off."…”

Furthermore, crews could "work even more effectively for periods of at least a month and quite probably for 2 or 3 months using a schedule of 4 h on duty and 4 hoff' (p. iii).…”

“…Ground-based work suggests that confinement per se has little effect other than a trend for respiratory rate to drop somewhat after the first few days (Hanna, 1962;Alluisi et al, 1963;Lebedinsky et al, 1964). The possible effects of long-duration missions on the respiratory system were considered in detail by a Space Science Board (1967) study.…”

Council with the express approval of the Governing Board of the NRC. Such approval indicated that the Board considered that the problem is of national significance, that elucidation of the problem required scientific or technical competence, and that the resources of NRC were particularly suitable to the conduct of the project. The institutional responsibilities of the NRC were then discharged in the following manner:The members of the study committee were selected for their individual scholarly competence and judgment, with due consideration for the balance and breadth of disciplines. Responsibility for all aspects of this report rests with the study committee, to whom we express our sincere appreciation.Although the reports of our study committees are not submitted for approval to the Academy membership nor to the Council, each report is reviewed by a second group of scientists according to procedures established and monitored by the Academy's Report Review Committee. Such reviews are intended to determine, inter alia, whether the major questions and relevant points of view have been addressed and whether the reported findings, conclusions, and recommendations arose from the available data and information. Distribution of the report is permitted only after satisfactory completion of this review process.PRECEDlliG PAGES__D NOT FILMED
