Abstract

It is investigated whether the mood state reported during the thermal comfort interviews is a psychological factor that influences the pedestrians’ thermal perception in outdoor environments. The thermal sensation vote, segmented according to the Mood State (neutrality, positivity and negativity) was correlated with thermal conditions, expressed by the outdoor thermal index UTCI. There was greater thermal sensitivity in the group with negative mood, which felt more heat as the thermal stress rises. The variance between thermal environment conditions and mood states did not explain the variation in thermal sensation between the groups, and other intervening factors in thermal perception should be considered.
