16		-The summary is taken from the manifest by copy / paste. The following text is just for demonstrating purpose!
	16	+Crew members significantly depend on each other for the correct and timely completion of their tasks, but at the same time, crew members can be the greatest stressor to each other in the isolation and confinement of their habitat. Only teams whose members have a reasonably good and solid professional relationship with each other can function effectively over a long period of time. The crew experiences a lot of stressors while working highly interdependently in a complex situation.
	17	+When working in complex situations the team has, for example, to adapt to new circumstances, collect information from various sources and make decisions, often under time pressure, all enhancing their mental workload. In order to face these challenges effective team processes are significant for successful teamwork and high team performance.
	18	+The experiment shall study teamwork processes. This includes questions regarding how stress evolves in the crew, MSC and OSS teams, how communication is affected by the perceived task load, the dependence of team performance and work satisfaction on various factors and temporal changes in collective orientation.
	19	+In order to answer these research questions, the three teams (crew, MSC, OSS) will do short experiments, aiming to examine evolving task load and stress. The data will be collected via questionnaires. The experiment will be comprised of two parts: one will study processes within individual teams, the other processes within conjoint teams (i.e. between MSC, OSS and crew). Participants will have to accomplish tasks that require highly interdependent work, i.e. can only be solved in a joint team effort. In part one this will be accomplished within the respective team, part two will involve communication between teams – thus the task will be adapted to account for the time delay.

18		-Astronauts are at all times required to provide outstanding performance. They are to remain resilient and to maintain their psychological well-being in order to successfully accomplish their mission in extreme and isolated environments. Future Martian explorers therefore have to be selected and trained to be able to deal with such environments and to be able to maintain an adaptive and resilient mind-set, communicate with others efficiently and pro-actively, process and accept worries and sadness, and to stay persistent with respect to the goals of the mission.

20		-In the course of the experiment, all six analog astronauts will be trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In a wide range of studies, ACT has proven to increase people’s psychological flexibility; this is, their ability to pursue their important goals, even when they experience thoughts, feelings, fears, and emotions that may get in the way of their moving towards those goals. The ACT training will focus on providing key, practical skills that the participants can use in carrying out their daily activities, as well as in interacting with their colleagues. This study aims to assesses the ability of ACT to improve participants’ psychological flexibility, stress and well-being, performance and error measures, narrative contents and communication patterns, cognitive and physiological outcomes.

22		-The study will use a pre - post-test design. The pre-test will be completed by the participants before the ACT training, a post-test after completing the training. Further, a follow-up measure will be taken from participants at the end of their mission. Additional qualitative data will be collected from the analog astronauts in form of a diary.
