室内环境条件（热、噪音、光和室内空气质量）可能影响工人的舒适度，从而影响他们的健康和福祉，以及他们的生产力。本研究旨在评估室内环境感知与居住者舒适度之间的关系，并考察个人和建筑特征的调节作用。在欧洲OFFICAIR项目的框架内，对8个欧洲国家（芬兰、法国、希腊、匈牙利、意大利、荷兰、葡萄牙和西班牙）167座“现代”办公楼的7441名员工进行了问卷调查。居住者评估室内环境质量（IEQ）时，既使用粗略的IEQ项目（对热舒适、噪音、光线和室内空气质量的满意度），也使用与室内环境参数相关的详细项目（例如，太热/冷的温度、潮湿/干燥的空气、室内/室外的噪音、自然/人工光、气味）。进行有序逻辑回归分析以评估感知IEQ与居住者舒适度之间的关系。与居住者整体舒适度联系最紧密的是“噪音”，其次是“空气质量”、“光”和“热”满意度。对详细参数的分析显示，“建筑物内的噪音”与居住者的整体舒适度高度相关。“办公室的布局”是下一个与整体舒适度高度相关的参数。个人特征（性别、年龄、努力报酬不平衡指数）和办公建筑特征（办公类型、办公地点）不同，环境质量与舒适度的关系也不同。工作场所的设计应考虑到居住者和建筑物的特点，以便为居住者提供更健康、更舒适的环境。
Indoor environmental conditions (thermal, noise, light, and indoor air quality) may affect workers’ comfort, and consequently their health and well-being, as well as their productivity. This study aimed to assess the relations between perceived indoor environment and occupants’ comfort, and to examine the modifying effects of both personal and building characteristics. Within the framework of the European project OFFICAIR, a questionnaire survey was administered to 7441 workers in 167 “modern” office buildings in eight European countries (Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain). Occupants assessed indoor environmental quality (IEQ) using both crude IEQ items (satisfaction with thermal comfort, noise, light, and indoor air quality), and detailed items related to indoor environmental parameters (e.g., too hot/cold temperature, humid/dry air, noise inside/outside, natural/artificial light, odor) of their office environment. Ordinal logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the relations between perceived IEQ and occupants’ comfort. The highest association with occupants’ overall comfort was found for “noise”, followed by “air quality”, “light” and “thermal” satisfaction. Analysis of detailed parameters revealed that “noise inside the buildings” was highly associated with occupants’ overall comfort. “Layout of the offices” was the next parameter highly associated with overall comfort. The relations between IEQ and comfort differed by personal characteristics (gender, age, and the Effort Reward Imbalance index), and building characteristics (office type and building’s location). Workplace design should take into account both occupant and the building characteristics in order to provide healthier and more comfortable conditions to their occupants.
