Psychological Briefing
The Star City psychologist talks to the crew and their support team about some of the personality factors he has observed in them during their training. Russians lead the world in the field of psychology in space. In several cases, Russians have identified potential problems with candidates for long-duration flights long before their host agencies. This doctor attended each of the critical pieces of crew training to observe and to counsel the crew members.
