目的：这项机会主义的自然研究调查了办公室工作人员从一座30年历史的建筑搬迁到一座新的专门建筑的影响。新建筑包括一个有吸引力的中央楼梯，很容易进入和谈判，以及休息空间和一个集中的设施区。研究人员旨在确定专门建造的办公楼对办公室工作人员的久坐和身体活动水平的影响。 方法：2013年，我们对办公室工作人员进行了一项自然的事前事后研究，他们在20世纪70年代的旧传统建筑中工作，并搬迁到一个新的专门建造的“活动许可”建筑。使用加速度计测量客观运动数据。还收集了人体测量学和人口统计学数据。 结果如下：在新大楼中，42名办公室工作人员显著减少了他们每天坐着的时间百分比（T1 = 84.9%至T2=79.7%; p<0.001），增加了他们每天站立的时间百分比（T1=11.2%至T2 17.0%; p<0.001）。中度活动显著下降（T1=3.9%至T2 = 3.2%; p=0.038）。坐立时间的平均分钟数显著减少（19.62分钟; p<0.001），站立时间增加（22.03分钟; p<0.001）。 结论：建筑物的设计可以影响活动。这项关于工作场所搬迁对办公室工作人员活动影响的机会主义研究显示，坐着和站着都有一定的积极结果。需要证据来告知建筑设计政策和实践，以支持体力活动并减少工作场所的久坐水平。
Objective: This opportunistic natural study investigated the effects of relocation of office workers from a 30‐year‐old building to a new purpose‐built building. The new building included an attractive central staircase that was easily accessed and negotiated, as well as breakout spaces and a centralised facilities area. The researchers aimed to determine the impact of the purpose‐built office building on the office workers' sedentariness and level of physical activity. Method: In 2013, a natural pre‐post study was undertaken with office‐based workers in their old conventional 1970s building and on relocating to a new purpose‐built ‘activity permissive’ building. Objective movement data was measured using accelerometers. Anthropometric and demographic data was also collected. Results: Forty‐two office‐based workers significantly decreased their percentage of daily sitting time (T1 = 84.9% to T2=79.7%; p<0.001) and increased their percentage of daily standing time (T1=11.2% to T2 17.0%; p<0.001) in the new building. Moderate activity significantly declined (T1=3.9% to 3.2%=T2; p=0.038). There was a significant decrease in mean minutes of sitting time (19.62 minutes; p<0.001) and increase in standing time (22.03 minutes; p<0.001). Conclusions: The design of a building can influence activity. This opportunistic study on the impact of workplace relocation on office‐based workers' activity showed modest positive outcomes in sitting and standing. Evidence is required to inform building design policy and practice that supports physical activity and reduces levels of sedentariness in the workplace.
