| 40 | === Summary === | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | Mars analog astronauts (AAs) undergo a rigorous selection and training process to | ||
| 43 | ensure crew cohesion and mission success. However, even the healthiest, | ||
| 44 | strongest individuals may face psychological challenges due to various | ||
| 45 | environmental stressors including isolation, confinement, close living quarters,[[image:1629013073345-374.png||style="float:right"]] | ||
| 46 | monotony of food, delayed communication with MSC, time pressure, scientific or | ||
| 47 | engineering failures, sleep difficulties, fatigue, etc. In our effort to further human | ||
| 48 | space exploration in a safe and effective way, we must thoroughly understand and | ||
| 49 | protect the psychological well-being of the analog astronauts, before, during, and | ||
| 50 | after the space analog mission. | ||
| 51 | |||
| 52 | This project aims to study analog astronauts anxiety and depression levels before, | ||
| 53 | during and after space analog mission in order to better understand psychological | ||
| 54 | well-being in response to known and unknown environmental stressors. This project | ||
| 55 | further aims to study the correlation between AAs crew anxiety and depression | ||
| 56 | levels and the possibility of a “third quarter phenomena” (TQP) whereby the first | ||
| 57 | quarter of the mission may be characterized by excitement or anxiety, the second | ||
| 58 | quarter by boredom and depression, and the third quarter by increased emotional | ||
| 59 | outbursts. | ||
| 60 | |||
| 61 | This project has the potential to inform prevention strategies including resilience | ||
| 62 | training for the mental health and overall well-being of analog astronauts at the | ||
| 63 | individual and group level. | ||
