Abstract

This paper aims to study how the cognitive state affects decision making in the field of military operations in cyberspace. In the Spanish military doctrine, cyberspace is recognized as a field of operation and we can see how it grows in importance in the current methods of warfare that are increasingly less conventional and more oriented to the cognitive field. People follow a process by which we end up making a decision, but this can be largely affected by the situation in which we find ourselves. When we are stressed or overwhelmed, we tend to think less and act more on impulse. Decisions remain ultimately the responsibility of individuals, regardless of what an algorithm might recommend. The human brain emits waves with different frequencies that can be read to infer a certain cognitive state. A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) allows us to establish a data transmission channel between our brain and the computer to be able to read them in real time, analyze them and determine what type of wave it is and its meaning. In this paper, we intend to study and draw conclusions about how the mental state of a person affects their decision making.
