[Psychophysiological optimization of operators' activities]. / Psikhofiziologicheskaia optimizatsiia operatorskoi deiatel'nosti.

A concept of complex psychophysiological optimization of human performance, including the models of a relationship between the mechanisms of performance (structure and operational contents) and the ways of its regulation is proposed in the paper. Data on the regularities of separate and combined influences of various labour factors on the quality and functional status of an operator have been experimentally obtained. Rational ways for enhancing performance efficiency of man and for normalizing his status are shown.

[Psychophysiological aspects of decision making by the dyad of operators]. / Psikhofiziologicheskie aspekty priniatiia resheniia diadoi operatorov.

Psychophysiological aspects of the process of handling with operational tasks of varying complexity involving cooperative taking of various decisions in standard and environmentally stressful conditions are considered. Optimal values of the quality and tension parameters, and strategies of operators' dyad functioning in an ergonomics system were established.

[A disaster medicine databank]. / Bank dannykh meditsiny katastrof.

The effective system for the emergency health care in the disaster or calamity situations presupposes a wide application of computer facilities. The article shows the possibilities towards the improvement of medical support with the help of the disaster medicine information dissemination system. The authors give the main functional characteristics of this system which could make it possible to optimize the health care to the wounded and to make a correct distribution of assets.

[Informational operator-computer interactions under the effects of unfavorable environmental factors]. / Informatsionnoe vzaimodeistvie operatora s EBM v usloviiakh vliianiia neblagopriiatnykh faktorov sredy.

This paper discusses changes in the psychic functions of an operator working in the interactive mode under the influence of adverse environmental effects that cannot be modified. It is postulated that in this situation the strategy of solving operational problems may transform due to changes in the structure of decision taking. The paper describes simulation of operator's activities involved in controlling information flows in a stressful environment of two degrees of complexity.The investigations demonstrated a trend for a decline of operator's work capacity, helped develop mathematical models to predict performance variations in an extreme environment, as well as formulate recommendations as to how computer-interaction efficiency can be increased.
