Capturing the Dynamics of Team Cohesion and Collaboration [#4009]
Good team collaborative interaction will be critical for long duration space missions. This research is designed to develop monitoring systems to assess the dynamics team interaction and feedback systems to support team member cohesion.
3:10 p.m. Salas E. Smith-Jentsch K. Fiore S. M. Bedwell W. L. Sierra M. J. Dietz A.
Ogelsby J. Grossman R.
Optimizing Crew Performance in Long Duration Space Exploration: Best Practices for Team
Training and Cohesion Measurement [#4175]
The current effort describes progress to date on a multi-year effort examining how team training can contribute to optimizing crew performance and multiteam system (e.g., flight crew, mission control) integration during long-duration missions.
3:20 p.m. Roma P. G. Hursh S. R. Hienz R. D. Brady J. V.
Progress and Prospects for a Simple, Rapid, and Objective Behavioral Assay of
Group Cohesion [#4055]
Here we describe the rationale, development, early parametric and validation research, and future plans for a simple, rapid, and objective behavioral assay of group cohesion.
3:30 p.m. Keeton K. E. Slack K. J. Schmidt L. L. Palinkas L. Ploutz-Snyder R.
Baskin P. Leveton L. B.
Examination of Communication Delays on Team Performance; Utilizing the ISS as a
Testbed for Analog Research [#4213]
Results of this study provide a preliminary understanding of the impact of communication delays on individual and team performance as well as insight into how teams perform and interact in a space-like environment.
3:40 p.m. Tannenbaum S. I. Mathieu J. E. Salas E. Alliger G. M.
Composing and Developing Resilient, Adaptive, and Self-Sustaining Teams for
Long Duration Space Exploration [#4062]
This presentation describes a recently initiated research grant that examines how best to compose an
LDSE team, and how to use team training and adaptation countermeasures such as debriefing to optimize team resilience and adaptability.
3:50 p.m. Miller C. A. Wu P. Schmer-Galunder S. Rye J. M.
Non-Intrusive Psycho-Social State Detection for Extended Space Habitation [#4214]
We are starting to develop automated analysis techniques to infer crew psycho-social states from verbal and non-verbal data in existing audio, video and textual data streams captured daily in normal operations on-board the International Space Station.
4:00 p.m. Morie J. F. Lauria R.
How Virtual Worlds can Benefit Future Space Travel [#4063]
Future space missions demand we consider a new spectrum of preparations, from training to psychological concerns. Virtual worlds are a promising technology that can provide not only preparation for, but also long term support of these future space missions.

4:10 p.m. Cartreine J. A. Buckey J. C.
An Intervention for Interpersonal Conflict on Long-Duration Space Missions [#4078]
This project involves the development and evaluation of an interactive-media program that LD crewmembers can employ to manage ongoing conflicts. It expands the NSBRI-supported Virtual
Space Station (VSS) suite of interactive media psychosocial support programs.
