Sam Berman
Sam Berman is a world leader in Research around Induction
Lighting, as demonstrated by the work below.
1. Berman, S.M., Jewett, D.J., Fein, G., Saika, G.,
and Ashford, F. 1990.
Photopic luminance does not always predict perceived
room brightness. Lighting Research Technology, 22(1):
37-41.
2. Berman, S.M., Fein, G., Jewett, D.L., Saika, G. and
Ashford, F., 1992.
Spectral Determinants of Steady-State Pupil Size with
Full Field of View, JIES, 21(2): 3-13.
3. Berman, S.M., Jewett, D.L, Benson, B.R., and Law,
T.M. 1997.
Despite
different wall colors, vertical scotopic illuminance
predicts pupil size J.IES 26 (2): 59-68.
4. Berman S.M., Fein, G.; Jewett, D.L., and Ashford,
F., 1993.
Luminance controlled pupil size affects Landolt C test
performance. JIES, 22(2):150-165.
5. Berman, S.M., Fein, G.; Jewett, D.L.; Benson, B.
R.; Law, T.M. and Myers, A.W., 1996.
Luminance
controlled pupil size affects word reading accuracy.
JIES, 25(1): 51-59.
6. Berman, S.M., Jewett, D.L., 1998.

J.IES 27(1): 57-66.
7. Berman, S.M., Fein, G., Jewett, D.L. and Ashford,
F., 1994.
Landolt C recognition in elderly subjects is affected
by scotopic intensity of surround illuminants. JIES
23(2): 123-130.
8. Berman SM, Navvab M, Martin MJ, Sheedy J and Tithof
W.
A comparison of traditional and high colour temperature
lighting on the near acuity of elementary school children
Lighting Res. Technol. 38,1 (2006) pp. 41-52.
In addition to these technical journal references the
following reference provides a less technical review
of the new findings and their implications.
9. Berman ,S.M. 2000:
The
coming revolution in lighting practice. Energy
Users News Oct, 25,10 23-25.
Two other publications confirming some of the earlier
Berman et al results:
10. Navvab, M. (2001),
A comparison of visual performance under high and low
color temperature fluorescent lamps. J.IES, Vol. 30,
No.2 pp.170-175.
11. Navvab, M. (2002),
Visual acuity depends on the color temperature of the
surround lighting. J.IES Vol.31,No.1, pp. 70-84.
For an earlier study on the scotopic response of pupil
size see
12. Bouma, H. 1962.
Size of the static pupil as a function of wavelength
and luminosity of the light incident on the human eye.
Nature, 193: 690-691.
