你有沒有好奇，何解辦工室內的女性總喜歡披上毛毯或穿上外套？這並不是因為潮流所致，根據Plos One近日發表的研究，女性在室溫下的常見認知測試中表現更好，但是因普遍辦工室的冷氣溫度過低，以致女士們需要保暖，以致引發了一場「毛毯潮流」。

研究背後的研究人員在柏林有超過540名大學生在一個設定為不同溫度的房間內進行不同的測試，範圍在61到91華氏溫度間。每個場景中的參與者被要求回答常見的邏輯問題和數學問題，這些問題涉及兩位數的加法問題，這些問題將在沒有計算器的情況下完成。他們還被要求解讀一組字母，以形成盡可能多的德語單詞。

該研究發現，溫度較高的溫度使女性能夠回答更多關於數學和語言測試的問題，並且還提高了他們在整體測試中的準確性。總體而言，一攝氏的溫差讓女性回答的問題的正確機率增加2％。所以，若然你認為自已工作效率不理想，不妨試試多做保暖工作！
