PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL RESPONSES IN THERMAL TRANSIENTS WITH RAMP CHANGE.

Author(s) : OHNO H.

Summary

TWO KINDS OF EXPERIMENTS WERE DESIGNED, THE FIRST FOR CONDITIONS RANGING FROM THERMAL DISCOMFORT TO NEUTRAL AND THE SECOND FOR THE REVERSE, WITH RAMP CHANGE FOR BOTH CONDITIONS. THE RESULTS ARE AS FOLLOWS: IT IS REASONABLE TO USE DUAL SCALES OF THERMAL SENSATIONS TO INTERPRET THE AFTER-EFFECT OF THE PREVIOUS TEMPERATURE ON THE RESPONSES AFTER A TEMPERATURE CHANGE ; THERMAL SENSATIONS SHOWED FASTER CHANGE THAN PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES IN THE FIRST CASE ; SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EXPERIMENTAL SEASONS WERE ALSO SHOWN ON THE COOL-WARM SENSATION SCALE DURING AND AFTER THE TEMPERATURE CHANGE, AND PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES VARIED MORE VIGOROUSLYFOR THE HOT THAN FOR THE COLD CONDITION.
