Linking indoor environment conditions to job satisfaction: a field study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Physical and questionnaire data were collected from 95 workstations at an open-plan office building in Michigan, US. The physical measurements encompassed thermal, lighting, and acoustic variables, furniture dimensions, and an assessment of potential exterior view. Occupants answered a detailed questionnaire concerning their environmental and job satisfaction, and aspects of well-being. These data were used to test, via mediated regression, a model linking the physical environment, through environmental satisfaction, to job satisfaction and other related measures. In particular, a significant link was demonstrated between overall environmental satisfaction and job satisfaction, mediated by satisfaction with management and with compensation. Analysis of physical data was limited to the lighting domain. Results confirmed the important role of window access at the desk in satisfaction with lighting, particularly through its effect on satisfaction with outside view. Des données physiques et des données obtenues par questionnaire ont été recueillies auprès de 95 postes de travail dans un immeuble de bureaux décloisonnés du Michigan, aux Etats-Unis. Les mesures physiques comprenaient des variables thermiques, acoustiques et relatives à l'éclairage, les dimensions des meubles, ainsi qu'une évaluation de la vue extérieure potentielle. Les occupants ont répondu à un questionnaire détaillé portant sur la satisfaction à l'égard de leur environnement et de leur travail, et sur des aspects relatifs au bien-être. Ces données ont été utilisées pour tester, au moyen d'une régression médiatisée, un modèle liant l'environnement physique, par la satisfaction à l'égard de l'environnement, à la satisfaction dans le travail et aux autres mesures liées. Il a en particulier été démontré qu'il existe un lien important entre la satisfaction globale à l'égard de l'environnement et la satisfaction dans le travail, médiatisé par la satisfaction vis-à-vis de la direction et de la rémunération. L'analyse des données physiques a été limitée au domaine de l'éclairage. Les résultats ont confirmé que le fait de pouvoir accéder à une fenêtre au bureau joue un rôle important dans la satisfaction à l'égard de l'éclairage, en particulier par son effet sur la satisfaction vis-à-vis de la vue extérieure. Mots clés: satisfaction à l'égard de l'environnement, satisfaction dans le travail, éclairage, perception par les occupants, bureaux, productivité organisationnelle, vue, bien-être

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
