This paper presents some results of the research project "Domestic Violence and Architectural Space", sponsored by several Mexican Governmental Offices and Citizen Organizations. One of the purposes of this project was to find the probable correlation between several physical characteristics of houses and violent behaviour of their inhabitants. In this paper we report the results of the indoor climate exclusively. These results confirm the findings of Givoni and others (2002, 2003, 2004) about the impact of the indoor climate of naturally ventilated buildings on adverse human behaviour.
