Successful Transfer Of Adaptation Acquired In A Slow Rotation Room To Motion Environments In Navy Flight Training
Abstract
Two flight students, grounded for the reason they were highly susceptible to motion sickness, completed their training after gradually adapting to 10 rpm, achieved by executing head movements during small stepwise increases in angular velocity. Subject 1 executed a total of about 77 000 head movements with a period of 5 months and Subject 2 executed about 108 000 head movements within a period of 42 days. The transfer of adaptation acquired in the laboratory to most motion environments aloft was good; the notable exception involved weightless maneuvers in the case of Subject 1. Both were on flight status when contacted recently. The opportunity was taken to assess the current motion sickness susceptibility in Subject 1 in the fall of 1975. He reached our (mild) motion sickness endpoint, in the rotating room, at 17 rpm: the average endpoint is 7--8 rpm. Some practical and theoretical implications are discussed.

Motion sickness sensitivity is decreased for exposure to other forms of provocative stimulation as well.
“Motion sickness sensitivity is decreased for exposure to other forms of provocative stimulation as well (Cramer et al. 1978; Graybiel and Knepton 1978a, b; Graybiel et al. 1968a, b; Reason and Graybiel 1969, 1970).”

With this paradigm, it is possible to adapt people to rotational velocities of 25 rpm, and even higher, without eliciting any symptoms of motion sickness.

The Pensacola slow-rotation room experiments showed that it is possible to desensitize individuals by having them make head movements at very low velocities of rotation and then at progressively higher velocities.
“A long series of pioneering experiments in the Pensacola slow-rotation room showed that it is possible to desensitize individuals by having them make head movements at very low velocities of rotation, e.g., 1 rpm, and then additional head movements at progressively higher velocities.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
