Includes bibliographical references (pages 31-34). "Motion sickness habituation describes adaptation to stimuli which produce motion sickness. Habituation is important, as it is a natural process which reduces the adverse effects of motion sickness symptoms. Since naval personnel experience relatively long exposures to provocative motions, it is necessary to quantify habituation as a preliminary step towards the goal of quantifying human performance at sea. Scientific and medical literature clearly substantiate the existence of habituation and describe its general behaviour, but a method for defining habituation to ship motions is not available. A brief review of motion sickness and habituation is presented and habituation data from experiments and sea trials are described"--Abstract, page ii. Includes abstracts in English and French.
