Experimentation for the Development of Aircrew Pain Metrics

Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) has undertaken an
Aircrew Neck Strain Project.
The purpose of the project is to reduce the operational impact
of aircrew neck strain and injury for the
Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF).

An element of the main project aims to develop a validated
measure or measures of neck pain that isolates sensory effects
from the subjective choice of numbers or properties of the
response scale.

The aim of the work under this requirement is to conduct
experimentation using the double stimulus
single response (DSSR) method (similar to the psychophysical
technique of joint stimulus presentation)
for DRDC - Toronto.

The work must be completed by 31 March 2015.

The maximum funding available for the Contract resulting from
the bid solicitation is $50,000.00,
Canadian Funds, (Applicable Taxes extra). Bids valued in excess
of this amount will be considered nonresponsive. This disclosure
does not commit Canada to pay the maximum funding available.
