Summary
This paper investigates the effects of indoor lighting on alertness and visual performance, specifically in the context of image analysts and other Air Force personnel who often work in dimly-lit or dark environments.
Categories
Alertness and performance: The paper investigates how changes in ambient illumination or the orientation of light fixtures can improve or degrade alertness and visual performance.
Employee satisfaction and retention: The paper discusses the potential negative health consequences of insufficient lighting in the workplace, suggesting that improvements in lighting could increase employee satisfaction and retention.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper explores how changes in the environment of image analysts, such as increases in ambient illumination or changes to the orientation of light fixtures, could improve productivity and long-term health.
