Study on occupants' window view quality vote and their physiological response

The window view quality related to the motif was recently introduced in buildings' certification methods such as LEED, BREAM, WELL and technical standard EN 17037 well. experimental study of psychological physiological response observers performed thermostatic chamber at class I indoor environment conditions. aim to: i) review models for numerical characterization motifs; ii) collect observers' votes quality, using 5-point Likert scale, with experiment simulating different iii) propose a new model predicting vote, based on motif, additional consideration sunny or cloudy conditions; iv) measure brain waves power during observation resting state, wearable electroencephalography device, find out what extend correlates their response. results show that increase case dominance natural elements, however built significantly conditions No significant difference found regarding gender age observers. It ranking, used reviewed methods, differ correlation our results, Spearman's index from -0.35 (EN 17037) 0.85 (View-out Quality Index method). best fit upgraded parameter, indicating conditions, defined Window View Index. alpha waves, frontal asymmetry beta ratio were indicators, because they are observes' state. is less pronounced votes. Among analyzed biomarkers shows highest positive response, regardless gender, views dominated elements also Based these we recommend most suitable biomarker research impact well-being occupants.
