- Abstract
Graph: Figure 2 The proposed two-step rating procedure We offer this proposal in the hope that other researchers will consider using it, either as the main evaluation scale or in parallel with a researcher's preferred scale. While the de Boer scale is widely used to measure discomfort from glare, commonly in studies of pedestrian-scale outdoor lighting, its design has several problems that lead to noise in the data and in turn to continued disagreement about the prediction of discomfort.[1] The de Boer scale is a 9-point categorical scale in which the odd numbered categories are labelled with magnitude descriptors (Figure 1).
