Performance under stress / edited by Peter A Hancock and James L Szalma - Aldershot : Ashgate, 2008 - xvi, 389 p. - Human factors in defence .

Draws on a multi year multi university study on stress and the modern soldier. Covers a very broad spectrum of subjects including concentration, fatigue, remote command and control and trust, information processing capacity, vigilance, time stress, positive psychology, teams, stress mitigation through cognitive readiness, multi-modal information display under stress, stress exposure training, multi-cultural collaboration, individual differences in stress reaction, and experiences from the current conflict in Iraq. The editors make clear that although the primary focus is soldiers, the research has applications in many other occupational areas.
