The Subjective Response to the Thermal Environment
Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1967Techniques used to assess subjective reactions to the thermal environment are evaluated and found to have been developed without any conceptual basis. In addition, the scales used lack sensitivity and inter-experimenter consistency. A novel approach to the problem has been developed which assumes that such measurements must account explicitly for the ...

Preference for the Thermal Environment by the Elderly
Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1969On the basis of the responses of 64 elderly subjects (mean age 75 years) to two questionnaires, temperatures from 32° F to 110° F were classified as cooler-than-comfortable, comfortable, and warmer-than-comfortable. The distribution of comfortable temperatures agree with experimentally derived findings on college-age and middle-aged adults with the ...
