Review of A Survey Report on Human Factors in Undersea Warfare

Abstract

Reviews "A Survey Report on Human Factors in Undersea Warfare" by the Panel on Psychology and Physiology of the Committee on Undersea Warfare of the National Research Council (see record 1951-04021-000 ). While there is always reference to the psychological aspects of submarine operation in particular, the material surveyed is relevant to a wide range of industrial arid military problems of human efficiency. For the applied fields of industrial and military psychology, or for any field in which the efficient utilization of manpower is a problem, this survey provides a factual reference and a guide to needed research that is far more valuable than its title implies. The approach to behavior here presented may, indeed, prove to be crucial for our times. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
