Perceived and yet not seen: Non-visual effects in daylit spaces
Summary:
This paper discusses a study that investigates the effects of different lighting conditions on circadian rhythms, alertness, fatigue, cognitive functioning, heart rate variability, and skin temperature, with the aim of improving behavior and mitigating negative effects on wellbeing in classrooms.
Categories
- Alertness and performance: The paper discusses how different lighting conditions can affect alertness and cognitive performance.
- Cognitive function and memory: The study investigates the impact of lighting conditions on cognitive functioning.
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses the role of architectural strategies, such as glazing, in creating different lighting conditions.
- Well-being: The study aims to improve behavior and mitigate negative effects on wellbeing in classrooms through the manipulation of lighting conditions.
