This study is a scientific approach to psychological factors such as emotional stability among various effects of forest resources. In order to carry out this study, the experiment was conducted on the subjects by setting the forest healing space as various spaces. The subjects who participated in this experiment were the students in their twenties and the average age was 22±1.25 years. The subjects were assessed for emotional words through subjective sequence evaluation in different designated forest healing spot. In addition, the emotional states that they actually perceived were measured by measuring the bio-signals to their perceived emotions. BMP, SDNN, VLF, LF, HF, Amplitude, and PPI were used for the bio-signal reaction experiment applied to this study. The results of this experiment were measured by Friedman test and Wilcoxon test for statistical analysis. n this study, 'good', 'clear', and 'uncomfortable' words were found statistically significant at the spot of forest healing space for subjective emotional vocabulary. In addition, SDNN, HF and Amplitude were statistically significant in the results of quantitative bio-signal measurement at each spot in the forest healing space. Based on the results of this study, we can suggest the application direction and strategic utilization plan of forest healing spot and forest resource utilization field. This is not only a guide for the users who use the facility through the spatial facilities and physical requirements for the emotion based forest-healing, but also can be used as a personalized emotional space design aspect.

Driving simulators have been developed for evaluating users' reaction to various driving situations. Dynamic simulators have, however, limitations of the motion feedback in space. Therefore, this paper presents a driving simulator and suggests a human sensibility ergonomics (kansei engineering) method to be used in improving sense of motion through a vehicle simulator. Human sensibility ergonomics(kansei engineering) is defined as translating technology of the customer' feeling about a new product into design elements. Constituents of the simulator were defined and the virtual world was generated by the object modeling technique. Senses perceived were classified into feelings of velocity, acceleration, rotation, and vibration based on the human sensibility associated with driving. And the most frequent verbal expressions were collected from 17 male subjects to define complex human sensibility.

최근 사용자 인터페이스 및 감성공학에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 기업의 제품개발 방향에도 영향을 미치고 있다. 그러나 제품개발에 직접 응용할 수 있는 구체적인 지식은 체계화 되어가는 단계라 할 수 있다. 따라 서 실제의 제품개발을 위하여 어떤 방법 및 프로세스로 개발하여야 할 것인가에 대한 기초적인 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 구조화수법을 위해서는 객체지향의 수법이 유용함과, 시뮬레이터 제작을 위해서는 Altia, Rapid, ToolBook 등의 기법이 유용함을 알게되었다. 그리고 시뮬레이터에서 얻어진 데이터를 분석하기 위해서는 사용되는 일반통계 기법과 프로토콜 분석등은 많은 제품을 개발하기위한 일정에는 분석하기에 많은 시간을 필요로함으로 실효성은 고려 해 볼 여지가 있었다. 향후, 관련연구가 활성화 됨에따라 많은 방법들이 제공될 것으로 기대되며 실제품개발에의 응용에는 기업의 활발한 연구가 기대된다.

For the product development using Human Sensibility Ergonomics, it is very important to understand human preference and sensibility of products. Human sensibility is affected by each person's psychological factor and is different for individuals. This paper analyzed consumer's automobile purchase patterns, according to the types and the features of face, using the psychological concept that human the types and the features of face have been used to understand human personalities. In this paper, it is showed that there are some differences among customer's automobile purchase patterns, according to the types and the features of face If further study has been done in this field, this study could be applicated in Human Sensibility Ergonomics, Marketing, etc.

The sensitivity of the emotion evoked visually by IAPS was attempted to be defined using EEG(electroencephalogram). Twenty university students were participated in this study. Their EEG was measured and analyzed in terms of frequency range such as delta, theta, alpha and beta wave. The results showed that alpha increased, but delta and beta decreased with positive emotional progress. Inter-variation between alpha and delta in F4 and beta variation in P3 were indicative of the evaluation sensitivity of human emotion.

When grasping a movable object or making an object move, humans feel kinesthetic sense. Kinesthetic sense is the human sense that the human feels in response to the motion acted on the human. The objecive of the paper is tranforming the kinesthetic sense to quantitized data that is useful from the viewpoint of engineering. To provide various motion patterns, 2-dimensional motion generator was built using 2-axis linear motors. Active stiffness and active damping were implemented by means of current control and force feedback techniques. Based on Taguchi method, the most dominant factors to affect kinesthetic sense were investigated. Also, some functions adequate to quantize the kinesthetic sense were found.

The work of design needs not only a lot of scientific information, but also a artistic sensitivity. Designers require abundant imagination to translate the information of the design, into the Gestaltung. Particularly, the translation of ergonomic information into the elements and grammar of the Gestaltung needs an interface. In order to consider the theoretical possibility for this, a view of fundamental notions, the function of design semantics and ergonomic problems in the design process were analyzed. The purpose of this study is the exploration and relevance of the theoretical model for human factors and design semantics, to see if they could be harmonized as a system of a new design method.

Emotion science is one of the rapidly expanding engineering/scientific disciplines which has a major impact on human society. Such growing interests in emotion science and engineering owe the recent trend that various academic fields are being merged. In this paper we review the recent techniques in the measuring the emotion related elements and applications which include animal model system to investigate the neural network and behaviour, artificial nose/neuronal chip for in-depth understanding of sensing the outer stimuli, metabolic controlling using emotional stimulant such as sounds. In particular, microfabrication techniques made it possible to construct nano/micron scale sensing parts/chips to accommodate the olfactory cells and neuron cells and gave us a new opportunities to investigate the emotion precisely. Recent developments in the measurement techniques will be able to help combine the social sciences and natural sciences, and consequently expand the scope of studies.

In modern society, the necessity of Color and Psychology Therapy is increasing for psychologically calm children who are less taken care by their parents in busy daily life, and helping them adapt to the environment. Therefore, we need to understand sensitivity status of children with paintings that they draw. Currently, most of empirical studies on their sensitivities are based on psychological and engineering perspectives. This study was designed to provide a system to extract psychological status of children from their pictures by distinguishing harmony of colors using information of solid colors and arrangement of colors in the image space. For achieving this research purpose, first of all, sensitivity database was constructed based on the image space of colors. Then, using the K-Means algorithm, the image was clustered and a wide amount of color values were divided into groups. After that, children's sensitivities were extracted by matching groups of color values with database, and color psychological status of children was observed using the color distribution chart in their paintings.
