Julie, you could use group dynamics or role-playing to create psychosocial stress, using time and/or complicate physical or reading/calculation exercises where you evaluate compentence of group or individuals.

Hello Julie

When I read your question, I thought of spaceflight, although a lot of the work looks at the physiology related to lack of gravity etc. but does not mention models re the psychosocial aspect. I don't know if this paper is of any interest. It looks as if David Dinges is the only author on ResearchGate; I don't know if he would be able to help:

Mary,

Please see the article attached. We induced psychosocial stress in participants in this study by manipulating expectation (Jones et al. 1998) and close evaluation of individual contribution to a task (Smith et al. 1998).
