9. Do men and women view the habitat differently? 



There was only one important difference between the response of men and women 



toward the habitat. The female aquanauts liked the habitat better. It is 



believed that both their smaller body size and the unique challenge afforded 

 them had much to do with their perspective of the habitat. 



10. In improving the habitability of future space vehicles^ where do we turn 

 our attention; to what attributes of the physical environment does a crew 

 become sensitive over time? 



The results of this program indicate that multiple-use spaces in isolated 

 habitats can create a wide variety of physical and attitudinal problems for 

 the residents. In particular^, compartments utilized by the inhabitants for 

 research must be designed with particular care because they have more impact 

 on life quality than leisure areas. The results indicate that in particular, 

 task support, variety of stimuli and behavior, privacy, and opportunity for 

 self-selection of foods and activities are key parameters to be provided in the 

 improvement of life quality in isolated habitats.
