Humans adjust their response to temperature changes to maintain a stable body temperature, rather than focusing on specific body regions. In a study where participants controlled the temperature of a special garment in a cold environment, it was found that despite fluctuations in core and skin temperatures, overall comfort and sensation remained stable. Participants quickly found their preferred temperature setting and maintained it throughout the experiment. Skin temperature and changes in body temperature were key factors influencing comfort levels. This suggests that our bodies consciously regulate temperature to keep a consistent overall body temperature, rather than reacting to changes in specific areas.
