Assessing perceived stress, sleep disturbance, and fatigue among pilot and non-pilot trainees

April 5, 2024

In this study, we conduct an extensive analysis to address a fundamental question: how do stress, sleep disturbance, and fatigue experiences differ between pilots and non-pilot college students? Delving into stress and fatigue levels within these populations contributes to understanding these phenomena and their potential implications for overall well-being and performance.
