@Lost phil,
It really depends on how you conduct the experiment.
If you use a group, well many people construct their responses based off observation of other behavior.
So you would want to have them individually subjected to the change in temperature.
Also are you withholding any of their senses? Some times visual cues can give away environments of varying temperatures which will psychologically effect their response to the environment.
For instance you could simulate the cloud effect of a cold room like a walk cooler/freezer in a room that was 70 degrees F. I bet you'll get some people asking for a jacket when they see the clouds of simulate cold air.
I think you will have to be very clever in just how you arrange such an experiment or the results you get will not reflect honestly that reality.
