| Workers Without Windows Compensate with Plants |
| Workers without windows in their cubes or offices were 5 times more likely to bring plants and 3 times more likely to bring pictures of nature into their work spaces than their window-endowed colleagues, according to a study led by Tina Bringslimark of Norwegian University of Life Sciences. Employees use plants and nature images to compensate for the lack of an outdoor view, the researchers say. |
