An experimental study on occupants' cognitive temperature scale for their environmental control behaviors was made in the university laboratories in summer in Sapporo. Their cognitive temperature scale is that they assumed the temperatures of the indoor air and the wall surfaces when they got into their office every morning. Their cognitive temperature scale is associated with the actual indoor temperature scale. The difference between the two of indoor air is minimize around 27 °C. Their thermal sensation is associated with their cognitive temperature scale more than the actual indoor temperature scale. On the other hand, there is significant difference between the two of the window surface against others. It suggests that for the occupants it is difficult to understand the thermal condition of window surface including the indoor-side blind. A group of a window surface temperature of 29 °C or higher on the average assumed window surface temperature up to 10 °C lower. In this group opening the windows and turning the fans in night time as their environmental control behaviors are not well-worked.
