... there are no simple 'right' answers for most web design questions (at least not for the important ones). What works is good, integrated design that fills a need--carefully thought out, well executed, and tested.

Hedge, Alan, Wilson, Sheena, Burge, P. Sherwood, Robertson, Alastair S. and Harris-Bass, Jon (1987): Environmental, Psychological and Organizational Correlates of Employee Health in Offices: A Proposed Model. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 736-740.

In a survey of 4373 office workers, sampled from 47 office sites across the U.K., correlates of work-related illness were investigated. Results showed that a variety of factors influence the prevalence of 10 work-related symptoms which are characteristic of the "sick building syndrome". Path analysis was used to develop a model to represent causal associations. This model proposes that work-related illness is affected by architectural/environmental factors, individual/psychological factors, and occupational/organizational factors. The implications of this for health promotion are outlined.
