This study classified sensory affordances, functional affordances, and perceptual affordances, and verified their effects on consumers' participation and intention to stay in the metaverse. As a result of the study, sensory affordance, functional affordance, and perceptual affordance all had a positive effect on consumer participation, and sensory affordance had the greatest effect. In addition, consumer participation was found to increase the intention to stay. Service companies that provide metaverse platforms will have to pay more attention to realizing virtual space through various senses and physical elements when building a metaverse in order to encourage customers to actively participate in the service process. Since services based on the 4th industry, the participation of consumers needs to be more actively reviewed. From the perspective of affordance, it is expected that the realistic implementation of the metaverse environment and the interaction with various contents or avatars in the space will increase consumer participation.

This research investigated how the participation of various social activities affects cognitive function in middle-aged and elderly population. To examine the relation between the participation of various social activities and cognitive function, we used data from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Social activities were classified into four types as religious ritual, leisure, public association and ascriptive association activities, and MMSE-K score was used to measure cognitive function. Results from multiple regression analyses after adjusting for socio-economic status and health status show that the participation in religious and leisure activities have positive effects on cognitive function in middle-aged and elderly population. Participation in leisure activities in middle-aged male group helps preserve cognitive function, and leisure activity and ritual activity are significantly related to cognitive function in middle-aged female group. Meanwhile the participation in religious and leisure activities have positive effects on cognitive function in elderly male and female group. Based on these findings, we suggest that various programs to support the participation of elderly population in social activities should be developed for healthy life for the elderly.

본 연구는 참여디자인 방식을 기반으로 한 포스터디자인 사례를 분석하는 연구이다. 기존의 포스터는 마무리된 작품을 통해 보는 이들에게 일방적으로 메시지만을 전달하는 기능을 담당했다. 반면 참여디자인방식을 통해 열린 생산 시스템으로 변화되고 있는 포스터의 확대된 기능은 언제 어디서든 누구나 쉽고 빠르게 상호작용할 수 있으며, 단기간에 새로운 가치를 확산시킬 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 이러한 연구의 결과는 참여디자인기반의 포스터디자인이 변화된 디자인 환경과 사회적 맥락을 고려하여 봤을 때 기존 포스터디자인의 활용범위를 넓힌다는 것에 의의가 있다. 그러므로 참여 디자인을 기반으로 디자인된 포스터는 '소통'의 매개체로서의 영향력이 있다. 이러한 포스터디자인의 새로운 가치를 활용해 현대의 사회적 이슈를 단기간에 해결하기 위한 결과물을 만들 수 있다.

VE analysis is a method to secure definite functions and performance by defining user's various requirements clearly and propose alternatives to reduce cost. However, the present domestic VE project has difficulty in defining design function analysis clearly due to time constraints as well as difficulty in effective and efficient communication between project stakeholder. Domestic results of VE were largely focused on reducing cost while maintaining the functions of the existing facility. Therefore, this study aims to secure the optimal functions for users according to the original intent of user requirements through QFD-VE model which project VE participants can make collective and cooperative decision making. QFD-VE is a technique that first, it can make collaborative decision making in defining and modifying of design function and setting the importance of requirement function. Second, it allow project VE participants to check design interference and conflict between neighbor systems. This study also provided a mathematical model for implementing the computer system using QFD-VE in the future.
