[A method of simultaneous measurement of the total psychophysiologic characteristics of an operator engaged in a...

The authors suggest a method permitting measurements of emotional tension, the level of emotional stability, preparedness for emergency actions, and of the operator's work fitness. As the method is realized, the process of tracing dynamic objects is being simulated; at the preset moments of time a light or acoustic signal is employed as a signal requiring an emergency action; the tracing characteristics are recorded as are the pulse rate and cutaneogalvanic reactions of the test subject as well as the time characteristics of a reaction.
