Abstract
This pilot study compared three commercially available office chairs in terms of subjects' hemodynamics, core temperatures, preferences, mental workload, and task performance. With only five subjects, the trends did not converge; rather, one chair resulted in better hemodynamics over time, while another seemed to maintain stable core temperatures and support task performance. In general, subjective preferences and mental workload measures seemed to corroborate the hemodynamics data.
