Thermal Comfort: Multisensory Interactions?
Journal of PHYSIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGY and Applied Human Science, 2005 Experimentally, the effects of environmental conditions upon human capabilities have been studied most often through the imposition of a single stressor in isolation. Although it seems to be a common belief that thermal comfort can be influenced by concomitant stimulation of non-tactile sensorial modalities, few studies have succeeded in delineating ...
