摘要：

We have previously reported that the exposure to an abnormal magnetic field simulating the one encountered by the International Space Station (ISS) orbiting around the Earth may enhance autonomic response to emotional stimuli. Here we report the results of the second part of that Study which tested whether this field also affects cognitive functions. Twenty-four volunteers participated ill the study. 12 exposed to the natural geomagnetic field and 12 to the magnetic field encountered by ISS. The test protocol consisted of a set of eight tests chosen from a computerized test battery for the assessment of attentional performance. The duration of exposure was 90 min. No effect of exposure to ISS magnetic field was observed on attentional performance. Bioelectromagnetics 30:45-51, 2009. (C) 2008 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
