Abstract

This study seeks to identify usage behaviors and improvement factors to increase the academic and practical application of value the of color image scales. For this purpose, the authors discuss the positive and negative perspectives on the evaluation of previous studies on color image scales. Furthermore, a survey was conducted with 25 color experts who have been working in the field for over five years, and in-depth interviews were conducted with five of them. The contents of the survey are usage behaviors, evaluation, and the improvement of Kobayashi and IRI color image scales. In this process, emotional adjectives that need improvement were derived, and the opinions of experts related to improvements were collected. The analysis results are as follows. 1) As a result of the usage behaviors, 92% were aware of both color image scales. Moreover, 44% used both, and 56% used only one. 2) Regarding familiarity and trust, IRI was higher than Kobayashi. 3) A total of 88% of respondents stated that color image scales were necessary. A total of 43.6% of respondents, the largest group of respondents, indicated that color image scales are necessary in the field of practice. 4) Regarding the need for improvement, 88% responded that IRI color image scales need improvement. 5) The highest response to the factors requiring improvement was the reflection of the times, which was 31.9% for Kobayashi and 30.9% for IRI. 6) When improving color image scales, the adjectives that need to be treated as the most important were shown to be modern (15.8%) → natural, romantic, wild (8.8%) → dynamic (7.0%) → classic, casual, chic (5.3%). In conclusion, limitations were identified in the use of color image scales in practice and in the research areas, and there was a demand for correction and supplementation. The results of this study will serve as a foundational study related to color image scales, and it is expected that subsequent research related to color image scales will follow.

본 연구의 목적은 색채 감성척도의 학술적, 실무적 활용 가치를 높이기 위해 색채 감성척도의 사용 현황과 개선 요인을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위해 5년 이상 현업에 종사하고 있는 색채 전문가 25명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사 구성 내용은 고바야시와 아이알아이 색채 감성척도에 대해 우선적으로 개선이 필요한 감성어휘를 도출하고, 개선과 관련한 전문가들의 추가 의견을 수렴하였다. 분석 결과 1) 친숙도와 신뢰도에 대한 조사 결과는 아이알아이가 더 높게 나타났다. 2) 필요성과 활용도 조사 결과 색채 감성척도가 필요하다는 응답이 88%로 나타났으며, 연구, 교육 분야보다 기업 실무분야에서 필요하다는 의견이 43.6%로 가장 높게 조사되었다. 3) 개선 필요성 조사 결과 아이알아이의 색채 감성척도의 개선이 필요하다는 의견이 88%로 나타났다. 4) 개선 필요 요인에 대해 가장 높은 응답은 시대성 반영이었으며, 고바야시 31.9%와 아이알아이 30.9%로 나타났다. 5) 색채 감성척도를 개선할 경우 중요하게 또는 우선적으로 다루어질 필요가 있는 어휘는 모던한(15.8%) → 내추럴한, 낭만적인, 와일드한(8.8%) → 다이내믹한(7.0%) → 고전적인, 캐주얼한, 시크한(5.3%) 순서로 조사되었다. 결과를 종합하면 실무 및 연구 현장에서 색채 감성척도 사용에 한계를 인식하고 있었으며, 수정 보완에 대한 요구가 있음을 알 수 있었다.
