The effect of the thermal environment on performance and productivity has been a focus of
interest among indoor environmental researchers for nearly a century, but most of that work …

Several relationships between air temperature and work performance have been published.
We reanalysed the one developed in 2006 by Seppänen et al.; which is probably the best …

Climate warming has led to extreme high indoor temperatures above 39° C in hot and humid
areas during the summer, which poses a great risk to work safety. Cognitive impairment is …

In this study, we examined the cognitive performance of subtropically acclimatized subjects
at an extreme high indoor temperature and the effect of decreased humidity on the cognitive …

In this study, we examined changes in EEG signals during the cognitive activity at different
air temperatures and relative humidities (RH). Thirty-two healthy young people acclimatized …

Despite their impact on work performance, cognitive responses to thermal variations in
buildings have not been accurately quantified. Practical limitations in individual laboratory …

This study wants to examine the current bibliography concerning the thermohygrometric
perception in aged people living in industrialized countries and its socio-economic …

Heat exposure affects human performance in many ways. Both physiological (ie, glycogen
sparing, oxygen uptake, thermoregulation) and biomechanical mechanisms (ie, contact time …

Background Mounting evidence links exposure to traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) to
impairment in cognitive functioning. Objectives To determine if short-term, controlled …

There is general agreement that indoor thermal conditions affect Office Work Performance
(OWP); however, consensus on the specific characteristics of this relationship, such as its …
