The indoor thermal condition tests were conducted as real and declared by the respondents. The tests were carried out in the laboratory room in Bialystok. The object is a detached, two-storey building with a cellar. The tests were carried out from February to May 2015. In 1 week, on average, ten measurement series were carried out. During one experiment series, there were between 10 and 15 students present in the room. The aim of the publication is to analyze the results of declared perceived temperature tests in the room depending on the gender, the season and indoor and outdoor temperature conditions. On the basis of statistical analysis of the test results, it was found that in the analyzed age group, the perceived temperature declared in the room is not affected by the respondent’s gender. The conclusion is that the temperature sensations of young (and probably healthy) people who do not do physical work are similar, regardless of gender. Differences between the average perceived temperature in the room, declared by all respondents in winter and declared in spring are statistically significant. The indoor perceived temperature declared in the winter is almost constant and does not depend on the temperature of the perceived temperature of outdoor air.
