越来越多的研究发现揭示了人工照明的非视觉效应。在最近完成的一项现场研究中，我们比较了两种类型的荧光灯（日光灯管与普通白灯管）的效果。研究人员对在两个完全相同的绘图室工作的人员进行了为期一年的研究。结果支持这样的结论：日光管发出的光比白色荧光管发出的光更大程度地阻碍了睡眠激素褪黑激素的产生。坐在没有窗户的室内也会改变皮质醇等应激激素的产生。对高视觉复杂度与低视觉复杂度的研究证明，不仅光线很重要，整个视觉环境也很重要。结果表明，颜色和图案会刺激大脑的电活动。相比之下，在复杂的房间里，脉搏率降低，这可能被解释为对视觉过度刺激的补偿反应。总之，结果表明总体视觉环境对人们的影响比迄今为止所认为的要深刻得多。
There exists a growing body of research findings uncovering the non-visual effects of artificial lighting. In a recently completed field study we compared the effects of two types of fluorescent lighting, the daylight tube versus the common white tube. Persons working in two otherwise identical drawing offices were studied for one year. The results support the conclusion that light from the daylight tube blocks the production of the sleep hormone melatonin to a greater extent than light from the white fluorescent tube. Sitting indoors in window-less localities also changes the production of stress hormones like cortisol. That not only light but the total visual environment is important was demonstrated in a study of high versus low visual complexity. The results showed that colours and patterns stimulate the brain’s electrical activity. In contrast, the pulse rate was lowered in the complex room, which might be interpreted as a compensatory response to visual overstimulation. In conclusion, the results indicate that the total visual environment has a much deeper influence upon people than has been supposed hitherto.
