Experimentation for the Development of Aircrew Pain Metrics

Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) has undertaken an
Aircrew Neck Strain Project. The purpose of the project is to
reduce the operational impact of aircrew neck strain and injury
leading to a reduction of aircrew attrition rates and health
care costs associated with neck strain, for the Royal Canadian
Air Force (RCAF). An element of the main project aims to
develop a validated measure or measures of neck pain that
isolates sensory effects from the subjective choice of numbers
or properties of the response scale.

The aim of the work under this requirement is to conduct
experimentation using the double stimulus single response (DSSR)
method (similar to the psychophysical technique of joint
stimulus presentation) for DRDC - Toronto.

The work must be completed by 31 March 2014.
The maximum funding available for the Contract resulting from
the bid solicitation is $40,000.00, Cdn. Funds, (GST/HST
