Manual dexterity of the gloved and bare hand as a function of the ambient temperature and duration of exposure

Abstract

4 manual tasks were performed under 4 temperature conditions (25°, 50°, 75°, 100°F) and 3 exposure durations (40, 80, 120 minutes), under gloved and bare hand conditions. Temperature condition and duration of exposure had no significant effect on dexterity, which was, however, significantly affected by wearing a glove.
