I'm equally confused as the other person above. Why not just ask participants to report what type of sauna they used? Sure humidity/duration/temp would be awesome to have, but at the very minimum knowing if a dry sauna would get the same results as a traditional steam sauna.

What if they jumped between saunas? And with self-reporting, the more you ask I guess the less precise the result... Sensors, however...

There's quite a wide range of variation between "full dry" (no added humidity whatsoever) and "full steam" (an actual steam room, rather than a sauna). Just asking people was it dry or was it humid won't capture much of that variation. I have a steam room at home and have been a near-life-long lover of them - they are wildly different than a sauna. But I'd still rank a sauna where someone had dumped 1L or so of water over the heater to be "humid", and consider it also very different from a totally dry sauna.
