Research Abstract

The adaptabilities to a current living environment were examined by physiological responses to lighting, thermal and gravitational stresses in this study. The results were as follows ; 1) enough light exposure in the morning and selecting warm white light at night were good for accommodation of circadian rhythms and inhibited to be nocturnal type. 2) lack of physical exercise and chronic use of heating in winter led to lower basal metabolic rate and lower cold and heat tolerances. 3) a nocturnal type tended to feel faint and also to have a lower orthostatic tolerance with increased cardiac response to gravitational stress.
