This first-of-its-kind volume assembles current research on
psychosocial issues and behavioral and safety concerns inherent in
life and careers at sea. Focusing mainly on the commercial maritime
transport sector, it sets out the basic concepts of maritime
psychology in the contexts of health and occupational psychology
and illustrates more expansive applications across nautical
domains. A systems perspective and detailed case studies spotlight
unique challenges to mariners' work performance, personal and
environmental health and safety; it also provides support for
psychometric assessment of seafarers, and describes emerging uses
for the healing properties of the sea and sailing. The book is a
springboard for continued research and practice development,
further interaction between psychology and the maritime world, and
the continued broadening and deepening of the field. Among the
topics covered: * Positive psychology and wellbeing at sea. *
Transferring learning across safety critical industries. *
Occupational stress in seafarers. * The psychology of ship
architecture and design. * Motion sickness susceptibility and
management at sea. * Risk communication during a maritime disaster.
Written with clarity and nuance reflecting the vastness of marine
experience, Maritime Psychology will be of interest to lecturers,
researchers, and students of occupational and health psychology and
maritime science, and to social and health scientists and
practitioners in these and related fields.
