Título Illumination level and work performance - Systematics of experimental studies
Título original Beleuchtungsstärke und Arbeitsleistung - Systematik experimenteller Grundlagen [en alemán]

Resumen Experimental evaluation of the illumination level is distinguished as physiological-optical, work-physiological or psychophysiological. This article classifies and analyses the literature according to this scheme. Details of the publications (year, author, type of activity dealt with, increased illumination level and enhancement of performance, and reduction in errors and accidents) are tabulated and discussed. Optimum values of 1,300-2,500lx were obtained on the basis of subjective criteria. The article also aimed to show that there are various methods of evaluating the illumination level, each of which investigates very specific effects of light. Age structure should be taken into account in subsequent studies.
