In modern society, air conditioners have been an irrecoverable part of our daily lives. They bring not only the coolness or warmness physically but also influence our psychology and mood conditions. Research and experience show that there is a potential relation between the temperature setting and the fluctuation of human mood.

 

I. Proper temperature period and the mood stability

 

Normally, 22-26℃ is the most comfortable room temperature for the human body. In this period, blood circulation and the nervous system are relatively under a balanced state, in which people could keep a fun and relaxed mood. If the temperature is too low, the body will be nervous and even lead to anxiety and fatigue; if it is too high, then it will lead to tiredness and weak attention.

 

 

II. Over cold and the anxiety

 

Under the low-temperature environment for a long period, the body will shrink the blood vessel and accelerate the metabolism for keeping warm. This physiological tension will aggravate the anxiety. If the temperature setting is too low in the office, the workers will not be able to concentrate on jobs, and their mood will be worse as well.

 

III. Over heat and the irritability

 

On the contrary, a high-temperature environment will lead to increased sweating and a fast heartbeat in the human body, which makes people tired and irritable. People will become moodier in spaces without better cooling, which may even lead to conflicts in social activities. That's why the air conditioning units are the important "mood regulators" to maintain public order during hot periods in summer.

 

 

IV. Large temperature difference and moody fluctuation

 

From the hot outdoors to the cool air-conditioned room, the great cooling-heating difference will not only discomfort the body but also lead to moody fluctuation. Frequent temperature changes will lead to irritability and tiredness. In that case, moderate temperature adjustment without extreme settings is particularly important.

 

V. Reasonable temperature setting and positive mood

 

Using the air conditioner scientifically will conduce to creating a stable, comfortable environment and promote a positive mood. A proper temperature at home can relax the family members and have happy communications more easily. In offices, proper air conditioning settings will improve the workers' concentration and cooperative willingness.

 

Temperature is not only a regulator of body comfort, it also subconsciously influences our mood and attitude. Adjusting the temperature reasonably and creating a proper environment can improve our life quality and help us keep a more positive state. A comfortable temperature is somehow one of the keys to daily happiness.
