INTRODUCTION Although anecdotal reports of G-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC) in military aviation date back to before 1920, regular reporting did not begin until 1982. The effectiveness in the operational setting of G-LOC preventive measures, such as positive pressure breathing for G protection (PBG), has not been studied.

We investigated the relationship between stimulus similarity for a set of parameterized shapes and the spatial scale of neural representation within subregions of the lateral occipital complex (LOC) using a carryover functional magnetic resonance imaging design. In ventral but not lateral LOC, a linear recovery from adaptation proportional to shape dissimilarity was seen. In contrast, a strong ...

OBJECTIVE To examine differences in the use of emotion regulation strategies in adolescents with and without loss of control over eating (LOC). METHOD A community-based sample of 524 adolescents from 12 to 18years old (70.6% girls; Mage=15.08; SD=1.59) reported on LOC and the use of several maladaptive and adaptive emotion regulation strategies. RESULTS Adolescents who experience LOC (28%) ...

+Gz-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC) results in incapacitation which can be characterized by the unconscious period (absolute incapacitation) and a subsequent period of confusion/disorientation (relative incapacitation). The sum of the absolute and relative incapacitation periods represents the total incapacitation period and may be equated to the overall length of time a pilot would be in...
