Correlation analysis of sleep quality, mood and teleoperation performance in the MDRS206 analog mission

Human space exploration and the development of new industry demands specific studies on long-term human missions. Spending an extended duration time in isolated confined environment could degrade cognitive state performance operators within a crew. In context Mars or Lunar base, professional tasks such as teleoperation will be performed, therefore their outcome might impacted by crew’s state. Previous have shown evidence impact that stressors associated to confinement behavioural patterns sleep quality. This investigation links then aforementioned task performance. Hence, order investigate whether mental setting, correlational study was run data acquired from Crew 206 Desert Research Station (mdrs) Utah Desert. The participants were French students (n=5, Mean Age=21, σ = 0.707 ) who underwent period 3 weeks. Over these weeks, they performed 7 tasks. consisted guidance rover for sample collection lunar surface. Operator measured recording completion frequency errors. participants’ with Dreem headband, portable Electroencephalogram (eeg) (eeg). Only night before each session considered. Also, operator cardiac activity during using Faros 360 electrocardiography system. Lastly, mood assessed just performing shortened version Positive Negative Affects (panas) questionnaire. A Spearman correlation revealed several statistical correlations uncover between performance, quality setting. Amongst them are notably significant ( ρ 0.6197 , p < 0.01 ), reported feeling negative affect component 0.5797 parameters 0.4686 0.4944 ). addition paving way towards better assessment isolation tasks, linking personality traits help selection candidates future missions, thus increasing mission safety reliability.
