Study Finds Green Buildings Improve Cognitive Function

摘要

A new study found that improved indoor environmental quality doubled participants' scores on cognitive function tests. Conducted by researchers at Harvard University T.H. Chan School of Public Health's Center for Health and the Global Environment, SUNY Upstate Medical University, and Syracuse University, the study found that employees' cognitive performance scores averaged 101% higher in green building environments with enhanced ventilation, compared to a conventional building environment.
