Behind Closed Doors: How are buildings influencing our behaviour and wellbeing!?

Would you like to know how the buildings that we spend 90% of our lives in are impacting on our behaviour and wellbeing! Please take the time to fill out our survey and contribute to the research.

I'm an undergraduate passionate about how spaces dictate user wellbeing, and believe with research we can provide results that can inform architects and alike to make active design choices that could greater improve individuals and society experiences whilst deterring away from what could be bring us down!

We appreciate your time to take the survey, every respondent counts, and if you would like to make any additional comments on the topic please feel free.

    Mar 17 2012: Why does your questionnaire insist on knowing personal details before allowing someone to see whether they can usefully contribute?

      Mar 18 2012: Hi Anne, thank you for your comment. The questionnaire explains at the outset its intent to study how behaviour and wellbeing is influenced by the spaces that surround us with regard to where we live, work and play. There is no target sample, as everybody will provide useful data. The personal information is not specific enough to identify any individuals but is there for analysis comparisons. At the end of the survey you are asked if you agree to participate in the research as this gives you the option to disqualify your responses after experiencing the questions asked in the survey. I hope this clears things up but please let me know if you would like any further information.

        Mar 19 2012: So why not start with the subject you ask people's views on? There are so many 'questionnaires' which start by asking personal data that people are, quite rightly, becoming suspicious of them, especially where there is no guarantee as regards data protection.

        BTW, there is a target sample - some responses result in a message saying you can't do the survey.
