Psychology Prof Prepares
Report On Space Stress
What’s the most dangerous job
you can think of?
Few would argue if you said it
was being an astronaut. When
in space their life depends on
steady nerves, logical decisions
and good judgment.
In space they are constantly
alert. If they happen to flip the
wrong switch or turn the wrong
knob it could be disastrous.
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration wanted to
know how people were affected
by this continual exposure to a
stress situation.
Dr. James M. Elliott, profes
sor in the Department of Educa
tion and Psychology, was asked
to find out what happens to a
person under these conditions.
“We were asked to investigate
the physiological cost of long
term stress conditions,” Elliott
said.
T T,oi.:cd with Dr. D. E. Sheer
and otL .rs at NASA for about
two years ' Elliott commented.
The work took place at NASA
facilities r- m but was
*".c-
questions than it answered and
this is possibly as it should be,”
Elliott said.
However, their study did an
swer some important questions.
“We found that the cardiovas
cular system functions at a sig
nificantly higher level and there
is some indication that the gas
trointestinal tract is adversely af
fected,” Elliott said.
The results of part of their
work will be presented, in paper
form, to the annual meeting of
the Southwestern Psychological
Association April 21-23.
The paper is titled “Automatic
By-products of Avoidance Con
ditioning in Humans.”
