A close friend of mine was on a previous Hi-SEAS, and I can say that this was also one of the first questions we asked of them upon their return to Earth. According to my friend (who I'm not identifying out of respect for their privacy), the, uh, 'interpersonal relations' are in fact both manifest and juicy, and are a very substantial part of what they cover during the extensive surveys and debriefs that take place during and after the mission. It's a big part of what they're studying, even if they don't talk about it publicly.
