This book is the first to comprehensively cover research methods
for building occupant behavior. As this is of growing importance
for building design and for building performance optimization, the
book aims to provide a sound scientific basis for experimental
studies in this field. It introduces the reader to fundamental
questions about the topic and unfolds the different fields related
to occupant actions and comfort. This is followed by more general
questions about developing an appropriate research method and
experimental design. A comprehensive overview of sensors for
monitoring environmental and also behavioral and action-related
quantities helps to set up an experiment. In this context,
different experimental environments and data collection methods
(in-situ, laboratories, surveys) are introduced and discussed in
terms of their suitability for the respective research question.
Furthermore, data management and reporting is addressed. The book
concludes with fundamental challenges in conducting occupant
studies, with chapters on ground truth, ethics and privacy.
