Firefighters searching in dark and complex environments might lose their orientation and endanger themselves at the fireground. This study conducted experiments in the Training Facility of the New Taipei City Fire Department (NTFD), Taiwan. The objective of the experiments was to analyze the profile of each firefighter by a 13-factor self-report survey and their wayfinding time in dark and complex environments (DCEs). The results showed that age might be a marginally significant factor, and fear of confinement might be a significant factor that could affect firefighters' wayfinding time in the DCEs. The findings could provide strategies for improving the safety of firefighters working in such environments.

消防员在黑暗且复杂的环境中搜索时，可能会迷失方向，在火灾现场危及自身安全。本研究在台湾新北市消防局（NTFD）的训练设施中进行实验。实验的目的是通过 13 项自我报告调查分析每位消防员的特征，以及他们在黑暗且复杂环境（DCE）中的寻路时间。结果表明，年龄可能是一个边缘显著的因素，而幽闭恐惧症可能是一个显著的因素，会影响消防员在 DCE 中的寻路时间。研究结果可为改善在这种环境中工作的消防员的安全提供策略。
