Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the environmental parameters necessary for an optimal sleep environment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conduct a review of the evidence surrounding the optimal characteristics for the sleep environment in the categories of noise, temperature, lighting, and air quality in order to provide specific recommendations for each of these components.
Risk of Performance Decrements and Adverse Health Outcomes Resulting from Sleep Loss, Circadian Desynchronization, and Work Overload
Erin Evans-Flynn,Kevin Gregory,Lucia Arsintescu,Alexandra Whitmire,Lauren B. Leveton,William B. Vessey +5 more
TL;DR: Efforts are needed to identify the environmental and mission conditions that interfere with sleep and circadian alignment, as well as individual differences in vulnerability and resiliency to sleep loss and circadian desynchronization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep and neurobehavioral performance vary by work start time during non-traditional day shifts
Erin E. Flynn-Evans,Lucia Arsintescu,Kevin Gregory,Jeffrey B. Mulligan,Jessica Nowinski,Michael Feary +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that non‐traditional day shifts encroach on an individual's sleep opportunity and such shifts could be a contributing factor to the high prevalence of sleep deficiency observed in modern society.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of a Psychomotor Vigilance Task for Touch Screen Devices.
TL;DR: Compared three techniques for performing a psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) on a touch screen device (fifth-generation iPod) and to determine the device latency, device orientation and device latency should be considered when using atouch screen version of a PVT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of a touchscreen psychomotor vigilance task
Lucia Arsintescu,Lucia Arsintescu,Kenji H. Kato,Patrick F. Cravalho,Patrick F. Cravalho,Nathan H. Feick,Nathan H. Feick,Leland S. Stone,Erin E. Flynn-Evans +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the NASA-PVT is a valid tool for assessing fatigue in field studies and was sensitive to extended wakefulness in the same manner as the original PVT-192.
