Gender differences in physiological and psychological responses to the thermal environment with varying clothing ensembles

摘要

Although clothing is a critical factor in assessing human thermal comfort, gender differences exist in thermal responses. This paper presents research on gender differences in adult physiological and psychological responses to the thermal environment, using 12 different clothing ensembles. The experiment was conducted at four air temperatures: 10, 16, 22, and 28 degrees C, with three different series of clothing ensembles in each air temperature.
