Toward evaluation of mixed culture's team works: Case study of ship bridge simulator-based training for cadets

The seafarer of ocean-going vessel works together with multiple nationalities. There is individual culture and custom for each, and the difference among them is perhaps mental stress. The mental stress and the difference of custom is sometime a reason for human errors. In this paper, we challenge to evaluate the mixed culture's team works for ship bridge teammates for cadets. The index is physiological index which evaluates the mental workload. If we are able to evaluate the stress comes from the mixed culture using the physiological index, we can consider the optimum mixed pot, and prevent human errors by miss much people. We show the results of mental workload among mixed culture.
