(no english abstract)
Occupant behavior has a significant impact on building systems' operations and efficiency. As a result, several
innovative approaches have been introduced to quantify the dynamics of occupants within indoor environments,
such as interactions with different building systems and the impact of various feedback and interventions to
reduce the building energy consumption. To achieve this, researchers have highlighted the importance of
reducing energy consumption without impacting occupant comfort. As a result, there is an increasing body of
research evaluating how different theories of behavior across a variety of disciplines can explain occupant interactions with building systems. Future progress in this area calls for an in-depth understanding of behavioral
theories in explaining occupant interactions with different building systems. In this paper, we have used a
structured literature review approach to investigate how different psychological, sociological, and economic
theories have been applied to explain occupant interactions with heating and cooling (HVAC systems), opening
windows and ventilation, lighting and shading, electronic appliances, domestic hot water, as well as energy
conservation behaviors. Throughout the paper, we identify the most common theories and methodologies
applied within the existing research, general findings related to how occupants interact with different building
systems, as well as a number of identified gaps within the literature. Finally, we provide a discussion on directions for future research studies in this area under each building system.
