As users environments change, users primary needs for homepages also change more complicatedly. Today, users do not only want usability for homepages, but also to feel appropriate emotional experiences. Despite users needs, users do not always experience appropriate emotions that are conveyed by designers through homepage. I In this research paper, we analyzed the related factors with the emotional quality, which means the degree that users feel target emotions intended by designers. For analyzing factors related with the emotional quality, three hypotheses were verified; the factor of an emotion, the factor of users and the factor of designers. As the factor of emotions, the first hypothesis is that unclear emotional dimensions in users minds are related with the emotional quality. The second hypothesis, as the factor of users, is that the diversity of users experiences by same homepage is related with the emotional quality. The third hypothesis, as the factor of designers, is that the appropriate selection of design elements is related with the emotional quality. In the previous research, we selected the basic 13 emotional dimensions and 30 representative emotional words based on the statistical results and evaluations by professional designers. For this research, we conducted an experiment and user survey. In the experiment, we asked 30 designers to design homepages focusing on the typical emotion that was presented by a researcher. Based on the designing process and user evaluation, we performed statistical analyses: ANOVA with Tukey post hoc method and Factor Analysis. We found the discrepancy between the emotions that designers intend and the actual emotions that users experienced from homepages. From the result of analysis, we know that the factor of users and the factor of designers related with the emotional qualities, but the factor of emotions did not. The definiteness of emotions did not relate with the emotional quality. However, the diversity of emotions that users feel seeing the same homepages and design elements that designers chose for conveying target emotion related with the emotional quality.

Web sites are needed to approach the lots of ways that increase the user intuitive play over communicating information nowadays. So the stimulus of tactile sense establish it's importance through active study in other fields and we expect great effect to applicate this tactile sense in web site. This study analyzed both the experience for intuition and the increase of intuitive play in web site and investigated the importance of tactile sense. This user experience through the tactile sense not only communicates between designer and user but has the intuitive play for users. So we analyzed the factors of tactile user experience in web site and considered it's application and then applied these factors in internet shopping mail. After that, we analyzed the users'response in the Internet shopping mall using the tactile user experiences through the research.

기호공학(Semiotic Engineering)을 바탕으로 만들어진 커뮤니커빌리티 평가방법(Communicability Evaluation Method: CEM)은 사용자가 디자이너의 의도와 구현된 상호작용원리를 얼마나 잘 이해하고 있는가를 평가하기 위한 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 사용성 평가 방법인 커뮤니커빌리티 평가방법(CEM)을 국내에서 활용할 수 있도록 하기 위하여, DMB 폰의 사용성 테스트를 수행하여 로컬화를 추구하였으며 그 과정에서 기존 언어만을 이용하여 태그(Communicability Tag)를 추출하였던 방법이 아닌 행위를 바탕으로 태그(Communicability Tag)를 추출하고 결과에 새롭게 적용해 볼 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 이에 행위를 바탕으로 하는 커뮤니커빌리티 평가방법(CEM)을 사용성 평가에 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 모색해 보고자 하였다. 커뮤니커빌리티 평가방법(CEM)을 이용하면, 디자이너의 의도에 초점을 맞추어 문제점들을 발견하게 되고, 사용자는 향후 인지적 결점들이 개선된 디자인을 이용하게 되며, 그 과정에서 사용자는 긍정적인 경험을 하게 될 것이다. 따라서 커뮤니커빌리티 평가방법(CEM)을 발전시켜 새로운 종합적 평가 틀을 구축하는 것은 매우 의미 있을 것이다.

Until recently, ind ustrial designers designed the product packaging of Eletronic Media, and userInterface designers focused primarily on software design, But as computer related technology continues to evolve, this distinction has become ambiguous, As a natural consequence of these trends, industrial designers are getting more involved in user-interface design to develop interactive objects, Moreover, In the future, the whole Information of a product whIch means product packaging, marketing, training matenals, support as weIl as hardware and software will be regarded as a product, and user's entIre expenences including the material elements of product will be taken for the factors of user interface to expand the category of user interface design. The importance of interface design and its applications within industrial design has been stressed in the recent years, However researches on practical process in interface design developments have been rarely established. This paper aims to develop the interaction design process for the useful user-interface design by theoretical study and actual analysis of user-interface design.

The touch screen phone launched domestically in Korea, unlike the existing plane UI, it applied a cubic shape of 3D UI which provides three dimensional solid graphic. This study proposes to examine the correlation between the users' experience of 3D GUI, which were made by two different companies, and the brand. From this point of view, this study sets up a hypothesis about intimate correlation between individual differentiated brand and the user experience. Base on that, a model was designed. This study measured the satisfaction of user experience through the disclosure and non-disclosure of brand, focusing on 3D GUI cases which were launched so far, and it demonstrated that there was a clear difference in the degree of satisfaction. Through this examine, a brand was confirmed as one of the important element of user experience in using the 3D GUI that was launched competitively by companies. Therefore, the result of this study suggest that the designers need to establish strategies that make the brand as the core subject of design during the process of manufacturing product and service.

When a product is designed, user's requirements should be well analyzed and applied to the design so that the psychological and aesthetic factors of a product can be accurately conveyed to consumers. The essence of product development is to analyze the changes in the purchasing tendency of consumers and the needs of times, find out user experiences to apply to a design, and establish the objective of product development that well considers those. Designing should be recognized as one that designs even the sensitivity and experience created in the relationship with users, beyond the conventional notion of design that it draws the physical form of a product. As the subjects that design should consider have expanded like this, it has become important that today's design provides a new experience as well as simply develops formative elements based on the functions of an object. As a result, it becomes impossible to accomplish such objective only with the traditional design process that existing designers have stuck to so far. In this respect, this study is aimed to draw out a system and methodology for a user-oriented design process so that design can provide expanded experience to users from product form, applied material, and service.
