This study investigated consumer preferences for Internet medical information service in China using the multi-attribute utility theory. The multi-attribute utility theory is a compositional approach for modeling consumer preferences wherein researchers calculate the overall service utility by summing up the evaluation results for each attribute. We found that Chinese Internet medical information users consider the availability of information and quick response to be the most important attributes. Further, they think that the comment feature is less important as compared to other attributes such as costs and updates. In addition, we found that the Internet users having more Internet experience consider these attributes to be more important as compared to the people who are just beginning to surf the Internet. For any successful Internet business, Internet marketers should assess individual-level preference and accordingly organize a fresh campaign. As of now, Internet marketers need estimation methods to predict the market performance of new services in many different business environments. We believe that the multi-attribute utility theory is a useful approach in this regard.

For the group where customer's need for uniqueness is low, when ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name is not used, the favorableness of rational fashion good, a parka is lower than that of emotional fashion good, one-piece dress. However, there is no significant difference in favorableness by types of fashion goods when ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name is used. At the group with high need for uniqueness, while there is no significant difference in favorableness when ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name is not used, the favorableness of parka is higher than that of one-piece dress when ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name is used. 2. The interaction effects upon purchase intention according to consumer's need for uniqueness, whether or not using ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name and types of fashion goods are proven significant. For the group where customer's need for uniqueness is low, there is no significant different in the favorableness whether or not ALPHA-NUMERIC brand name is used.

The purpose of this study is to develop high-valued added socks by utilizing consumer design preference research in design. The study was performed by investigating literatures including previous studies, and researching the recognition and design preference of consumers. As a final step, socks designs were developed to reflect the results of the research. Gender differences have been found in the choice of socks. Women put more importance to the design, color and trend and prefer geometric, animals and plants patterns, and unique images compared to men. In terms of fashion interest level, 'high' group preferred design, color, and trend than 'middle' and 'low' group, and also preferred geometric, abstract patterns. Women's and unisex socks were designed for people in their 20s, the age group with the highest level of interest in fashion, after taking results of the consumer design preference research into account. Main themes for the lady's socks are 'Soft Shape' and 'Line Composition' in order to express delicate, soft sensibility. For the unisex socks, 'Daydreamer' and 'Free Zone' are the themes used to express young energy and the sense of freedom. 12 styles were developed by creating 3 styles per theme using Photoshop CS5 and Illustrator CS5 programs. As a result, it is confirmed that design strategies in segmented market are necessary for the high-valued added products. Also, the understanding of changes in consumer's tastes and needs through regular market research is needed for the competitive socks design planning.

심볼 디자인에 있어 선호도를 높일 수 있는 요소는 주로 소비자 반응요소와 디자인의 심미적 영향 요소와 연관이 있다. 이것은 디자인의 심미적 영향요소가 소비자 반응에 영향을 주고 그것은 실질적인 선호도 차이를 통해 나타나기 때문이다. 본 연구는 심볼 디자인에서 소비자들에게 선호를 불러일으키는 심미적 영향요소가 무엇인지 사례연구를 통해 조사하였다. 사례연구결과에 따르면, 심볼 디자인에 대한 선호도는 심미적 영향요소 중 율동, 균형, 조화, 정교성, 곡선, 게쉬탈트, 유기성, 인공성/자연성 등이 높을수록 높았다. 그와 비교해, 단순성/복잡성, 사실성/추상성, 깊이, 대칭 등은 높거나 낮지 않은 적정한 수준으로, 그리고 비례와 요소들의 반복성은 낮은 수준으로 디자인되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 높은 선호도를 보인 심볼 디자인은 자연물에서 온 형태, 전통문양에서 온 형태들로 나타났으며, 낮은 선호도를 보인 심볼 디자인은 기하학적 도형에서 온 형태들임을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 소비자 선호도에 맞는 심볼 디자인에 대한 가이드라인을 제공할 수 있을 것이다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 연구 범위상 소비자의 감정적 반응 중 선호도(Affect)만을 고려하였으며, 색채와 재질 등의 특성들은 배제하고 형태적인 측면만을 고려하였다.

Generally, noise from a indoor air conditioner has been measured by overall sound pressure level, dB. Customers evaluation, however, of the noise from an air conditioners should not be depend on the only overall level but also the sensory feeling. Moreover, in this sensory evaluation, irregular, time-varying and uneven sounds which are difficult to describe itself by overall level are more affectable. Unfortunately however the formal evaluation method for this kinds of noise is not determined yet. In this research, the evaluation method for tonal noise, which is one of the unmeasurable sounds by overall level, is proposed to evaluate its acceptability based on the consumer's sense of hearing. To consider the consumer's sense, several times of Jury evaluation are carried out. The proposed approach could be applied to the other sound, which acoustical characteristics are similar to the tonal noise .
