[Physical and psychogenic effects of impact acceleration on the operator's functioning in the tracking system]

It has been shown experimentally that simulated impact acceleration of 10 to 16 G may have a distinct psychogenic effect, which aggravates the action of the physical factor per se and, consequently, deteriorates the quality of operator's functions in the tracking system. Conversely, this exposure has a training effect and accelerates the development of adaptive and protective mechanisms which increase acceleration resistance of subjects, depending on their psychophysiological characteristics.
