Influence of seasonally adjusted exposure to cold and darkness on cognitive performance in circumpolar residents / Lawrence A. Palinkas.

Title: Influence of seasonally adjusted exposure to cold and darkness on cognitive performance in circumpolar residents / Lawrence A. Palinkas.
Author(s): Palinkas, Lawrence A.
Date: 2010.
Publisher: Oulu: University of Oulu
In: Melatonin and thyroid hormones in the cold and in darkness : association with mood and cognition. (2010.),
Abstract: Investigates effects of seasonally adjusted 24-hour exposure to cold and darkness on cognitive performance in 15 urban circumpolar residents who spent three 24-hour periods in climatic chamber at 65° latitude during winter (January-March) and/or summer (August-September). Finds that short-term exposure to non-hypothermic cold temperature and dim light was associated with significant increase in accuracy on some complex tasks. Although this association was found to be independent of season, long-term exposure to such conditions may explain why performance on some tasks is actually improved during winter months, consistent with findings of earlier surveys.
