Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Response to atmospheric humidity at comfortable air temperature : a comparison of three experiments

Notes: Sumario: Three experiments on subjective responses to atmospheric humidity at comfortable air temperatures are compared. Of the three experiments, the first two agreed in finding that both low and high humidities were rated as worse than the middle levels of 40-50%, on such scales as oppressiveness and stuffiness. Subjects also rated their skins as more moist in the more humid conditions. The third experiment failed to confirm these findings.
