EEG response and productivity outcome under changing indoor environment

Overall, the study results suggest that indoor temperature at 23-25 °C, acoustics at 45 dB, and luminescence at 700 lx provide a more favorable and productive environment for young adults. Louder environment and excessive lighting correspond to lower human capital approach (HCA) values and higher temperature corresponds to HCA again. With first-hand experimental results, this study provides real-world indoor environmental data and could provide scientific support for optimizing indoor environments and contributing to the future interior environment design to enhance human productivity.

Abstract

Overall, the study results suggest that indoor temperature at 23-25 °C, acoustics at 45 dB, and luminescence at 700 lx provide a more favorable and productive environment for young adults. Louder environment and excessive lighting correspond to lower human capital approach (HCA) values and higher temperature corresponds to HCA again. With first-hand experimental results, this study provides real-world indoor environmental data and could provide scientific support for optimizing indoor environments and contributing to the future interior environment design to enhance human productivity.
