Performance and Aesthetic Effects of Daylight [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1980
An experimental booth was constructed wherein north daylight or cool white fluorescent from either the side or top could be provided with the artificial horizontal illuminance matched to the daylight illuminance (at 320 to 860 lx). Thirty college student subjects performed needle threading, proofreading and graphreading tasks without awareness of the ...
