What's the effect of different CRI on humans? I'm curious what the difference is between good and bad CRI, and if a person would be able to notice it.


I don’t know about physiologically but perceptually it feels dimmer and drearier. The room feels gloomy although there is certainly sufficient “quantity” of light. It’s almost like everything takes a few milliseconds longer to resolve.

That, of course, is apart from the actual being unable to see certain shades of color and the spectrum being skewed one way or the other.
