TL;DR: PVT-B tracked standard 10-min PVT performance throughout both TSD and PSD, and yielded medium to large effect sizes, and may be a useful tool for assessing behavioral alertness in settings where the duration of the 10-minute PVT is considered impractical, although further validation in applied settings is needed.

TL;DR: This review will specifically explore the newly developed experimental daytime split-sleep schedules and their effects on recovery, compared with those deriving from a single consolidated sleep episode of equal duration.

TL;DR: The results highlight the importance of identifying behavioral, psychological, and biological markers of characteristics that predispose prospective crewmembers to both effective and ineffective behavioral reactions during the confinement of prolonged spaceflight, to inform crew selection, training, and individualized countermeasures.

TL;DR: A high-fidelity ground simulation of a Mars mission was used to objectively track sleep–wake dynamics in a multinational crew of six during 520 d of confined isolation, revealing that crew sedentariness increased across the mission as evident in decreased waking movement and increased sleep and rest times.

TL;DR: The first normative and acute total sleep deprivation data on the Cognition test battery are described as well as several efforts underway to establish the validity, sensitivity, feasibility, and acceptability of Cognition.
