First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at whether keeping indoor temperatures at 26°C can prevent dangerous heat strain and mental fog in children aged 10-15 during a simulated school day. Ten kids will be exposed to both a mild (26°C) and a hot (36°C) room while their body temperature and mood are measured. The goal is to find out if the temperature limit recommended for older adults also works for children.
