Cutaneous thermal perception is an important factor for thermoregulation. However, there are few studies reported concerning cutaneous thermal sensitivity regarding ethnic differences. The purpose of this study was to examine the cutaneous thermal sensations of tropical natives residing in temperate climates. Furthermore, experiments were carried out in four seasons to examine the seasonal differences in thermal perception, which is an important factor to be considered when designing cooling or heating systems to be used by different ethnicities. The seasonal difference of thermal sensitivity was found only for Japanese cool sensations. Japanese had more sensitivity to cold in summer than other seasons, and tropical natives had no significant seasonal differences.

皮肤热感觉是体温调节的重要因素。然而，很少有关于种族差异的皮肤热敏感性的研究报道。这项研究的目的是检查居住在温带气候的热带原住民的皮肤热感。此外，实验分四个季节进行，以检查热觉的季节差异，这是设计供不同种族使用的制冷或供暖系统时要考虑的一个重要因素。温度敏感度的季节差异只对日本人的冷感有影响。日本人在夏季比其他季节对寒冷更敏感，热带人没有显著的季节差异。
