Performance at a pursuit rotor task has been studied during the overshoot of core temperature caused by sudden cooling after heating, and the undershoot caused by sudden heating after cooling. Conditions were chosen so that effects of the absolute levels of core and skin temperature could be discounted. The results showed that the direction of change of core and skin temperature, rates of change of core temperature between -0.07 and +0.06 degrees C/min, and rates of change of skin temperature between -1.0 and +1.0 C/min did not affect performance; particular circumstances of this experiment, expecially the short duration of the changes in direction studied, make this conclusion tentative. Comparison with earlier studies indicates that the major determinants of performance at elevated body temperatures are absolute levels of mean skin temperature, with the absolute level of core temperature having a less significant role.
在加热后突然冷却导致核心温度超调以及冷却后突然加热导致核心温度下冲的过程中，对追踪转子任务的表现进行了研究。选择这些条件是为了排除核心温度和皮肤温度绝对水平的影响。结果表明，核心温度和皮肤温度的变化方向、核心温度在-0.07至+0.06摄氏度/分钟之间的变化速率以及皮肤温度在-1.0至+1.0摄氏度/分钟之间的变化速率均不影响表现；本实验的特殊情况，尤其是所研究的方向变化持续时间较短，使得这一结论具有一定的不确定性。与早期研究的比较表明，体温升高时表现的主要决定因素是平均皮肤温度的绝对水平，而核心温度的绝对水平作用较小。
