Human individual differences widely and markedly affect thermal comfort and should be
carefully considered in the design and operation of the built environment. This paper aims to …

This paper reviews the literature on the circadian rhythm of body temperature (CRT). The
review starts with a brief discussion of methodological procedures followed by the …

This mini-review focuses on the effects of aging on human temperature regulation. Although

Epidemiological studies have shown excess winter mortality particularly in older age groups.
A question is how much these statistics are affected by age-related physiological changes in …

Hypothermia is widely considered to be a more serious threat for older than for younger
persons because of older persons' impaired ability to defend body temperature during cold …

This paper investigated principal parameters affecting individual differences of thermal
preference. 36 male college students were selected from three thermal preference groups …

The purpose of the paper is to investigate the difference in thermal preferences and their
effect on physiological response and thermal sensation. A questionnaire combined with …
