Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The subjects performing the HTT will also undergo cognitive evaluation and psychological strain assessment using tests used and validated in the research laboratories of the United States military (USARIEM). The cognitive evaluation will be performed in addition to the validated physiological monitoring performed in the HTT. All gathered physiological and cognitive data will be used to construct new bio-statistical models and new criteria will be suggested for the definition of heat tolerance or intolerance.
