Back to the future—revisiting Skylab data on ocular counter-rolling and motion sickness by Gilles Clément, Timothy R. Macaulay, Sarah C. Moudy, Olga Kuldavletova, Scott J. Wood

“…We recently re-evaluated this data to determine asymmetry of each astronaut’s OCR response and their OCR slope from sigmoid fits during static leftward and rightward body tilts, which we then compared with their Coriolis sickness susceptibility index (CSSI) on the ground, their motion sickness symptom scores during 0 g maneuvers in parabolic flight, and the severity of the symptoms of space motion sickness (SMS) they reported during their spaceflights. We arranged the astronauts in rank order for SMS severity based on the SMS symptoms they reported during spaceflight and the amount of anti-motion sickness medication they used. …”
