Abstract
The study aims to investigate the individual difference of thermal physiological and psychological responses to various air temperature conditions in summer. Healthy 29 women were exposed to air temperature (20℃, 24℃, 28℃ and 32℃) during 120 minutes in a climate chamber. The results were as follows; There were differences among individuals in skin temperature, especially peripheral parts of the body, thermal comfort and thermal sensation. The subjects grouped into three based on preferred air temperature to investigate the responses in detail. Consequently, differences among three groups were found in thermal sensation, skin temperature distribution and skin temperature v.s. thermal comfort.
