Driskell, James E.; Salas, Eduardo
"...represents an up to date and comprehensive review of both
theoretical and empirical advances in this area....Each chapter is
well structured and accompanied by an extensive reference list
making this an invaluable source of material for both researchers
and practitioners....This volume represents a significant addition
to the literature and the authors are to be commended for their
lucid writing and digestible summaries of their domains."
—Cognitive Times"Salas, Driskell, and Hughes provide a useful
general introduction in which they set out a four-state model of
stress and performance that defines inputs, the appraisal process,
performance expectations, and outcomes including physiological,
emotional, social, cognitive, and performance components."
—Contemporary Psychology
