Effects of artificial lighting in dormitories on college students' physiology and production
Description
The artificial lighting plays crucial role in the human life in the contemporary,
globalized and highly complex world. Its influence on the physical and psychological
health of the humans was studied by numerous reputable scholars from across the globe,
however this study focuses on the impact of light on the college students living in the
dormitories. The study seeks to find whether there is a correlation between light and health
of the student, his/her performance, productivity, mood and feelings. The paper uses a
relatively new housing near Arizona State University Tempe-campus as a case study as an
attempt to substantiate the problem dimensions and suggest feasible solutions.
Basing on the available literature on the topic and the case study evaluation, the
author determined the range of possible recommendations for the lighting professionals in
the industry to maximally satisfy the needs of the students and make their stay and life in
the dormitory comfortable and healthy experience. The relevant conclusions are made
basing on the obtained results.
