Research on information systems and software engineering has often neglected behavioral effects, which may play a role in decision making on software development. The current study addresses this issue by empirically investigating the behavioral roots of over-requirement in the context of a software development project via an experiment. The negative phenomenon of over-requirement refers to specifying a software system beyond the actual needs of the customer or the market, which overload the system with unneeded features. The research question addressed here is whether over-requirement is due in part to the emotional involvement of developers with the software features they developed because of behavioral effects. Previous studies have demonstrated that under the endowment, I-designed-it-myself, and IKEA effects, people become emotionally involved and overvalue physical items that they respectively possess, self-design, or self-create. The findings of our experiment show that participants over-valued features they were assigned to be responsible for, to specify, or to construct, thereby confirming that the three behavioral effects play a role in software development decisions and affect over-requirement. Thus, the study contributes to software development research and practice from the behavioral economics perspective, highlighting the roots of over-requirement.

With development of global network in the 21th century, Korea has recklessly accepted western culture occurred damages to our identity. Development of traditions in a modern way contribute us Korea identity and future vision. This study has studied about combination traditional material and contemporary material with a view to diversified user's desires and individuality. This object shows that function and decoration coexist together, and design reflects mans life and thinking of the age as a reflection of sociocultural phenomena. The purpose of this work to create the object that meets mans requirement and even foresees the possibility of such requirement through converting into various appearances. Different concepts including closed singleness and expansion within open structure coexist one element. also this objects suggest that transformative expressions that simplify or transform, the forms can be freely changed by consumer's emotional changes. Here, light and form are experimented for creating diversified emotions. Considering design as positively responding behavior against the limitations given by environment instead of the solution to simple functional requirement, future design will find Its value more In more active response.

Various researches on content sensibility with the development of digital contents are under way. Emotional research on fonts is also underway in various fields. There is a requirement to use the content expressions in the same way as the content, and to use the font emotion and the textual sensibility of the text in harmony. But it is impossible to select a proper font emotion in Korea because each of more than 6,000 fonts has a certain emotion. In this paper, we analysed emotional classification attributes and constructed the Hangul font recommendation system. Also we verified the credibility and validity of the attributes themselves in order to apply to Korea Hangul fonts. After then, we tested whether general users can find a proper font in a commercial font set through this emotional recommendation system. As a result, when users want to express their emotions in sentences more visually, they can get a recommendation of a Hangul font having a desired emotion by utilizing font-based emotion attribute values collected through the crowdsourced method.

In conventional ergonomics, consumer product can be made based on anthropometric data and specific design guideline. However, the product may not satisfy consumers because their emotional preference have not been properly considered in design phase. Therefore, in this study a new chair design process was introduced by which both consumer's emotional need and traditional ergonomic requirement can be satisfied. As a part of the process, the traditional Kansei engineering technique was modified to collect quantitative information of consumer's visual appreciation and physical feedback of various types of chairs. Furthermore, we developed an interface, so called, KADAS(Kamsung Analysis and Design Assistance System), for designers to use the technique in chair design. This software can help designers to understand what should be the most suitable shape in designing items such as seat, back and arm rest, etc. to meet the emotional need of consumers. This software displays the result of modified quantification theory I, and explains how to use the statistics. This study suggested a new approach for ergonomic design incorporated with Kansei Engineering technique. This technique can be also applied to other products by extending the database of KADAS.

As an aging society accelerates its pace for the present, providing a pleasant environment to nursing homes is such an environmental requirement with which elderly people could improve their quality of life and even acquire the effects of healing. As an optimal element of ensuring amenity, nature is a general hospital that heals human beings physically and mentally. In this vein, the investigator drew out the frame of analysis, namely emotional/healing/relating amenity, by means of theoretical examination of such natural elements as water, light, soil/stone, and plant. And on the basis of the drawn amenity, the investigator examined the application of natural elements to study subjects in order to analyze the ensured amenity. Study findings show that the existing nursing homes have ensured healing amenity sufficiently, but they are unsatisfactory in ensuring emotional and relating amenity. Based on interview survey, the investigator suggests that the introduction of natural elements into nursing homes such public space as mediation space, interaction space, and rest places to ensure emotional/healing/relating amenity must be ideally equipped with the formation of outdoor forest in which water, light, soil/stone, and plant get joined together, rather than Introducing a single element respectively. In addition, the plan of construction of nursing homes must take residing elderly people's emotional/healing/relating amenity into account on the basis of physical amenity.

The emotional quality of the product have become an important factor in purchasing decision. Classical approach of product design has focused on providing proper functions of the product. However, as the life-cycle of products become shorter and the customer's needs get more diversified, it is now necessary to accommodate the customer's emotional requirement in product design. This study aims to analyze and interpret the emotional characteristics based customer preference survey. This study consisted of two part. First part was to search the optimal combination of design variables through DOE of predetermined 5 design variables. In the second part, we developed customer preference index model to measure the customer preferences about 16 different wood flooring product.

감정노동이란 직업적인 요구에 맞춰 감정을 조절하여 표현하는 것을 말한다. 그간 서비스 근로자의 감정노동 특징이나 관련 요인에 대한 연구는 다양하게 이뤄졌으나 서비스 근로자와 비서비스 근로자의 감정노동을 비교한 연구가 많지 않았으므로, 본 연구에서는 근로자의 유형을 나누어 감정노동의 차이를 검증해보고자 하였다. 또한 감정노동의 부정적인 결과로 알려져 있는 우울과 삶의 질 저하에도 관심을 가지고 이들에게서 나타나는 우울, 삶의 질과 감정노동 간의 관계에 대해서도 알아보고자 하였다. 이러한 목적으로 125명의 서비스 근로자와 사이버대학교에 재학 중인 186명의 온라인 대학생 자료를 수집하였으며, 온라인 대학생의 경우 비서비스직 임을 확인하기 위하여 관리자, 군인 및 주부로 대상의 직업을 제한하였다. 집단 차를 알아보기 위해 일원변량분석에 더불어 사후분석으로 Fisher의 LSD를 실시하였다. 고객응대의 과부하 요인은 서비스직에서 다른 세 집단에 비해 높았고 감정조절의 요구와 규제, 감정 부조화, 우울은 서비스직과 주부 집단에서 높게 나타났다. 다중회귀분석의 시행 결과로는 감정부조화가 우울을 상승시키고 삶의 질을 저하시키는 영향이 있는 한편, 지지와 보호는 삶의 질을 향상시키고 우울은 저하시키는 효과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 연구의 함의와 제한점에 대해 논하였다.
