In this study, we focused on thermal sensations, color, the sense of acceptance, and loneliness in order to clarify comfort, based on the relationship between physical stimulus and emotional state. We aroused emotions in a combined environment of temperature and color, and conducted subject experiments using psychological and physiological indexes. Concerning the psychological indexes, the main effect of temperature and color and the interaction between these two factors were observed with respect to the average value of the impression of “hot-cold” and “comfort”, but the influence of the emotional state was not confirmed. Therefore, one-way analysis of variance with one experimental condition and multiple comparisons using the Tukey method were employed. The results suggested that the emotional state made the influence of temperature and color on the subjective evaluation more significant. Meanwhile, the influence of temperature and time course was confirmed in the physiological indexes, such as the average skin temperature, the inner ear temperature and the like, but the influence of the emotional state was not confirmed.
