    Cognitive Function Test Scores Doubled - The COGfx Study
    The COGfx Study demonstrated that improved indoor environmental quality doubled cognitive function test scores. Of note, employees' cognitive performance scores averaged 101 percent higher in green buildings with enhanced ventilation compared to those in conventional buildings. The largest improvements in cognitive function occurred with crisis response, information usage and strategy.
