Zusammenfassung

Vigilanz, Vitalität und Gesundheit sind wesentliche Bestimmungsfaktoren für die menschliche Leistungsfähigkeit. Die Qualität, aber auch die Ausdauer der Leistungserbringung wird von Prozessen gesteuert, die tief im menschlichen Körper verankert sind. Diese Prozesse sind einerseits physiologisch, also rein körperlich und damit teilweise der Beobachtung und Messung zugänglich.

Speziell psychische Prozesse können nicht direkt gemessen werden, beeinflussen aber eine Vielzahl von menschlichen Leistungen wie Aufmerksamkeit, Konzentration, Lern- und Entscheidungsfähigkeit.

Grundsätzlich geht es dabei um das Erfassen eines homöodynamischen Prozesses, der nicht nur die Aktivität und Leistungsfähigkeit zu erfassen sucht, sondern gleichermaßen die Erholung, Regeneration und Reorganisation des menschlichen Organismus.

Ziel ist die Balance von Aktivität und Erholung sowie die nachhaltige Grundregulation des menschlichen Körpers.
