Abstract Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ) is grouped into four main categories: thermal comfort, indoor air quality (IAQ), visual and acoustic comfort. Individual aspects of IEQ are investigated to examine their impact on children's overall comfort in primary schools in the UK. This study has surveyed 805 children in 32 naturally ventilated classrooms during non-heating and heating seasons. This study has calculated the proportion of comfort votes by individual aspects of IEQ, predicted comfort votes by multilinear regression model and estimated the probability of having uncomfortable votes by binary logistic regression. Results of this study highlight that the proportion of uncomfortable votes should be kept below 10%. The developed multilinear model suggests that for a unit change in Air Sensation Votes (ASVs) and operative temperatures (Top), comfort votes change by 0.28 and 0.12, respectively. Developed multilinear and logistic regression models show that ASVs have a more significant impact on overall comfort than Top. To achieve acceptable comfortable votes and keep the probability of having uncomfortable votes below 10%, ASVs and Top should be kept within these limits: [ASV = very fresh and Top = 19–27 °C], [ASV = fresh and Top = 19–24 °C], and [ASV = OK and Top = 19–22 °C]. The ranges suggest that better perception of IAQ makes up for higher temperatures. It is advised to maintain individual aspects of IEQ, however, dissatisfaction with one aspect of IEQ does not necessarily result in overall discomfort unless that aspect is extremely unacceptable. Investigating the most influential factors on occupants’ comfort suggests which building controls should be prioritized for designers.

英国室内环境质量（IEQ）对学童整体舒适度的影响；回归方法

摘要 室内环境质量 (IEQ) 分为四大类：热舒适性、室内空气质量 (IAQ)、视觉和声学舒适性。调查了 IEQ 的各个方面，以检查它们对英国小学儿童整体舒适度的影响。本研究在非取暖和取暖季节对 32 个自然通风教室的 805 名儿童进行了调查。本研究通过IEQ的各个方面计算了舒适投票的比例，通过多元线性回归模型预测了舒适投票，并通过二元逻辑回归估计了不舒适投票的概率。这项研究的结果强调，不舒服的投票比例应该保持在 10% 以下。开发的多线性模型表明，对于空气感觉投票 (ASV) 和工作温度 (Top) 的单位变化，舒适投票分别变化 0.28 和 0.12。开发的多线性和逻辑回归模型表明，ASV 对整体舒适度的影响比 Top 更显着。为了获得可接受的舒适投票并将不舒适投票的概率保持在 10% 以下，ASVs 和 Top 应保持在以下范围内：[ASV = 非常新鲜且 Top = 19–27 °C]，[ASV = 新鲜且 Top = 19 –24 °C] 和 [ASV = OK 和 Top = 19–22 °C]。这些范围表明对室内空气质量的更好感知弥补了更高的温度。建议保持 IEQ 的各个方面，但是，对 IEQ 的某一方面不满意并不一定会导致整体不适，除非该方面非常不可接受。
