Recent research has shown that ceiling height affects problem-solving skills.
High ceilings activate the idea of freedom, enabling a flow of problem solving to unfold. In a low -ceiling room, feelings of constraint and confinement dull problem solving. The research study will be published in the August 2007 edition of The Journal of Consumer Research

I believed then as I do now, that it's not only my clinical skills which help patients, but the environment wherein it all takes place.
