Overview

In her work with the military, Dr. Shattuck has studied the effects of fatigue, sleep deprivation, thermal stress, and acceleration (+Gz-induced LOC and motion) in various operational and laboratory environments. She has studied work and rest patterns of US Navy Sailors on over a dozen ships; conducted a 4-year longitudinal study of sleep and performance of Cadets at the US Military Academy, West Point, NY; assessed sleep and academic performance of US Navy Recruits at the Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, IL; and studied the effects of delayed bedtime and wakeup times on performance of US Army Basic Combat Trainees at FT Leonard Wood, MO. In studies of US Marines at Camp Pendleton, CA, Dr. Shattuck examined the effects of waterborne motion exposure to cognitive and physical performance in Marines and was co-investigator of a study of egress times from amphibious vehicles. Dr. Shattuck has served as Principal Investigator on numerous other operational field studies including sleep and psychomotor performance of crewmembers on the USS Independence (LCS 2) Rough Water Trials. She served as advisor to the President's Emergency Operations Center of the White House, documenting improvements in sleep and morale following adoption of a novel watchbill. Most recently, Dr. Shattuck led a team to study work and rest patterns of members of the Reactor Department of the USS NIMITZ (CVN 69), focusing on their performance using different watchbills. Current research includes the assessment of work and rest patterns of Marine Corps Embassy Security Guards located throughout the world.

Dr. Shattuck has published widely and is the recipient of the 2013 Surface Navy Association Literary Award, the 2007 'Jimmie' Hamilton Award from the American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE) for Best Paper, the Roland Calori Award for Best Paper for 2006-2007 in Organizational Studies journal and the 2006 Gary F. Wheatley Award for Best Paper from the International Command and Control Research and Technology. She received her Ph.D. in Behavioral Sciences from the University of Texas School of Public Health.
