heal.abstract	This paper analyses the overall environmental conditions in selected university buildings of the National Technical University of Athens, Greece according to the perception of their users. The analysis is based on questionnaires distributed to the users of each building, working both in conventional and open-plan office spaces. During the same period, measurements of air temperature, relative humidity and daylighting levels were conducted in representative spaces of these buildings. The use of questionnaires aimed at obtaining subjective information concerning the whole range of internal comfort conditions (thermal, visual, acoustic and air quality). Furthermore, the analysis of the accumulated data also led to crucial observations concerning the users' ""environmental conscience"" on issues such as energy conservation, recycling, etc. as contrasted to their views and wishes on personal comfort expressed by daily use patterns in their own work environment.	en
