10. The Effect of Complex Operations on Team Cognition Processes in Human Spaceflight
SessionPoster Session 1
DescriptionFuture long-distance space exploration missions (LDEM) present formidable challenges due to prolonged isolation, communication delays, and extreme conditions, which affect individual and team cognitive functions, crucial for mission success. This necessitates a higher degree of autonomy, emphasizing the importance of team cognition in managing the complexities of LDEMs. Although prior research has largely focused on individual cognition, the collective cognitive processes that support effective team performance in space have been less studied. This oversight is critical as factors like microgravity and isolation can impair cognitive functions vital for teamwork, such as attention and working memory (Cabon et al., 1993; Kelly et al., 2005).
This paper employs the Macrocognition in Teams Model (MITM; Fiore et al. 2010a) to study publicly available Apollo space missions transcripts to understand the effect of mission challenges and problem-space characteristics on team communication and collaboration.
