to correlate patterns of brain activity with certain architectural features and begin to understand some of the complex relationships between the brain and the built environment. 1.2 Lighting One of the simplest ways to influence cognition and emotion through the built environment is to manipulate interior lighting. Lighting specifications, such as color temperature and illuminance, have been shown to influence a multitude of human behaviors (Hedge, 2000). One particularly unexpected finding has been the influence of lighting on collaboration in social settings. A recent study found that rooms with dim, warm light were more likely to foster social collaboration than rooms with bright, cool light in them (Kombeiz, Steidle, & Dietl, 2017). This suggests that meeting rooms with bright, white light may inadvertently disrupt team work. Similarly, the previously mentioned study on classroom environment showed a positive correlation between natural light without glare and students’ writing progress (Barrett, Davies, Zhang, & Barrett, 2016). Another study, using VR technology, found a positive correlation between office workers who chose to have more sunlight than artificial light in a virtual office environment and their reading speed and comprehension (Heydarian, Pantazis, Carnerio, Gerber, & Becerik-Gerber, 2016). These findings further support the idea that lighting can influence various aspects of human behavior, from cognitive abilities to social interactions. Clearly, lighting design has much broader implications than just style, as these studies suggest that interior lighting can influence psychological factors such as attentional and emotional processing. 1.3 Light Therapy 1.3.1 Specifications of Lightbulbs This study will be focusing on how lighting influences attentional and emotional processing. As such, there are various specifications for lights that are relevant to the 3PDF Image | The Effects of Lighting Design on Mood, Attention, and Stress
