 Which activity is part of the psychometric evaluation?
Flight Officer Robert Craig surrendered the tube containing his service record tapes and stood waiting while the bored process clerk examined the seal. "Los Angeles." "Los Angeles, eh? "No specific destination," supplied the man as he punched a key on a small instrument, "Air-lock ahead and to your right. The knowledge that much of it was motivated by envy soothed him as he clumsily let himself into the lock. "Place your clothing in the receptacle provided and assume a stationary position on the raised podium in the center of the lock." It was impossible to hate a robot, but one could certainly hate those who set it into operation. "Insert your right arm into the instrument on the central table," commanded the same voice he had heard before. "Oh, I've landed a few times, even walked around for a while...." "Mr. Craig, I suppose you've guessed that the next step in our little torture system here is psych." Your body is conditioned to a normal state of free fall, or at best to a state of acceleration." It helps suppress certain physiological reactions to an entirely new set of conditions. They play an important part in our awareness of balance. "Men on a rolling ocean acclimated themselves to a rolling horizontal. There were excellent psychological reasons for the old stereotype, the 'drunken sailor.' A port city was a frightening thing to an old sailor—but let's begin our little job at the beginning. I'll turn you over to psychometry for the usual tests and pick you up tomorrow morning at, say, 0900." During the days that followed, the psychologist seemed to Craig to become progressively more didactic. They were incredibly varied, even those that supported life. He had been on Einstein IV, the planet of eight moons, and had felt the pulse of all eight of the satellites at once that no PON could completely nullify. But even if he could accept the psychologist's authority for the cumulative effect of a gravity system, he could not understand the unspoken warning he felt underlying all that the man said. You agreed that you could not decide that for me and that my decision is logical. "Mr. Craig," the psychologist said slowly, "you have my authorization for you to return to Terra as a private citizen of that planet. On the eighth day, two attendants, who showed the effects of massive doses of PON to protect themselves from the centrifugal force, had to carry a man out of the tank.
