Abstract

Fatigue and other stress factors (stressors) affect Ground Soldier and Small Unit (SSU) operational effectiveness. Analysts require an understanding of the causes and effects of fatigue and supporting data (i.e., to characterize fatigue) and need a way to represent and assess the effects of fatigue on decision-making and physical activities. This paper is about a Dynamic Representation for Evaluating the Effect of Moderators and Stress on Performance (DREEMS). DREEMS is a research program to characterize fatigue and other stressors, define the elements of operational effectiveness in terms of critical tasks and processes, and develop a methodology for finding, analyzing, and using data to characterize the effects of fatigue on operational effectiveness. DREEMS provides the knowledge and data to support modeling the degradation in performance of physical and decision-making tasks in a constructive simulation.
