Description: Making Decisions Under Stress Implications for Individual and Team Training represents the culmination of a 7-year research project called TADMUS (Tactical Decision Making Under Stress). The goal of the program, sponsored by the Office of Naval Research, was to develop training, simulation, decision support, and display principles that would help to mitigate the impact of stress on decision making.

The volume outlines the overall background, research approach, and paradigm used by TADMUS, with specific focus on how to train decision making at the individual and team levels - especially how to provide training that will prepare individuals to operate in complex team environments.
