This study confirm the value and the importance of the human sensibility study to add up the new meaning, and to suggest a new value of Korean sensibility study through the understanding of current statusand trend of the sensibility study in the space. The method of the study was to collect date related to the sensibility study and to analyze it focusing on its details. The date was collected from researches published on the website since the establishment of Korean Institute of Interior Design and Architectural Institute of Korea and selected at the keyword search comer. The data was extracted under keywords of research object, research purpose, research method, and analysis method. And then it was quantified with HAYASH lll program and used for analyses according to its pattern and feature. The study shows that nowadays categories representing the current status and trend of the sensibility studies in space consist of the environment, the human, and the space. The contemporary study for sensibility puts the importance on a object and a subject of the study like the environment harmonized with human and space, the humans the subject that essentially uses the spate, and the space for the architecture and the interior that puts human in. Accordingly, the study for human sensibility should develop into the study for the design focused on the intangible relationship such as 'information', 'elements for space design', 'sensibility' beyond the existing tangible categories of environment, human, and space. In addition, in the method ways of study and analysis, those studies for the sensible relationship are required to develop into new types of study applying research methods of various studies beyond the traditional border between human studies, social science, and natural science.

One of the most important aspects to succeed in character industry is to develop a character that it can sensibly satisfy customers. For this, sensibility evaluation has to be carried character design have to be analyzed, firstly. In this study, sensibility evaluation using multi-variate analysis was performed for some humanized characters. From the factor analysis, sensibility factors were extracted and sensibility characteristics for characters were analyzed by those factors. Preference for those characters was evaluated and was analyzed in relation to those sensibility characteristics. Finally, a direction of character design was proposed from those results.

The purpose of this study was to develop the measurement of the fashion sensibility. The stimulus were 91 photos selected in fashion magazines and had dominant visual power under detail, color, texture and pattern in the elements of fashion design. The semantic differential scale was constructed bipolar 25 pairs. The obtained data were analyzed by cluster analysis, factor analysis, ANOVA and t-test. The results were as follows; 1. The hierarchical structure was combined a natural and interesting, sensitive and lovely fashion sensibility. 2. The constructing factors of fashion sensibility were found out as aesthetic value, maturity, character and femininity·masculinity.(total variance: 55.7%) 3. Fashion sensibility by elements of fashion design was significantly different regarding all factors. 4. Fashion sensibility by demographic variables sex, age, marriage, education, occupation and expenditure was significantly different regarding partial factors.

The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were subjectively evaluated by 126 subjects with 7-points scale questionnaires using the 4-dimensions and 8-axes system, which was composed of adjectives such as ‘masculine-feminine’,‘new-old’,‘casual-classical’, and ‘ambiguous-arranged’. And the sensibilities of cotton fabrics were classified through the cluster analysis. Also, we measured color and physical characteristics, which were variables to have an effect on the sensibilities of cotton fabrics. The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were classified into 8 groups such as ‘feminine, arranged, and classical sensibility’,‘arranged, classical, and old sensibility’,‘feminine sensibility’,‘new, feminine, and ambiguous sensibility’,‘casual and new sensibility’, and ‘ambiguous and old sensibility’The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were more influenced by color characteristics such as value, chroma, and hue than by physical characteristics.

Now the most important thing in fashion industry is find out the fashion sensibility and preference of customers exactly. Thus it is needed that fashion sensibility is connected with formative properties in clothing. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between the fashion sensibility and the formative properties in clothing. 91 kinds of costume samples have been selected from photographs in fashion magazines under color combination, inside form, texture, pattern type in clothing. I have measured fashion sensibility by using Semantic Differential method. The obtained data were analyzed by GLM, discriminant analysis. The results of analysis are as follow; 1. The discriminative images were significant difference in formative properties - color combination was related to attractiveness, inner form to decorativeness, pattern to harmony and texture to surface of soft and hard in clothing. 2. fashion sensibility was significant relationship with formative properties especially inner form in clothing. And the trimming was identified as gorgeous and feminine. 3. Preference, Buying needs, Riches and Pleasant were significant relationship with formative properties in clothing especially color combination and texture.

Human sensibility is assessed by measuring and analyzing various physiological signals in an objective way, or by analyzing adjectives chosen by the subjects in a subjective way. The present study aims at developing an integrated human sensibility assessment system that measures changes in a person's objective and subjective sensibility in real-time and analyzes them in an integrative way. The present system is composed of a real-time subjective sensibility assessment system, an automatic subjective sensibility assessment system and a real-time physiological signal measurement and analysis system for sensibility assessment, which are separated from one another. It can be utilized individually, or can be combined as a synthetic sensibility assessment system for comprehensive sensibility assessment.

History of the Sensibility Ergonomics is explained. Concepts, definition, and research methods on the human sensibility are proposed for systematic applications of human sensibility studies to product and environment developments. Sensibility Ergonomics was born in socio-technological environments where consumers required aesthetic and satisfactory products in addition to useful and usable ones, and manufactures were trying to develop consumer-oriented, user-friendly products. Sensibility Ergonomics is defined as "multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary processes for developing products and environment as usable, comfortable and satisfactory with the information on human sensibility." Human sensibility is functionally defined as "feelings generated when perceived sensory and information stimuli are reflected from memory which has been accumulated through personal experiences." Human sensibility is affected by at least three factors: personal, social, and cultural. Consumers evaluate products in three aspects : functional, sensorial, and cultural sensibilities. Human sensibility is personal, dynamic, and ambiguous. It is generated reflectively and intuitively against external stimuli. No Physiological responses are accompanied, and one cannot control his/her sensibility. However, the sensibility affects the decision making or behavior of the person. To understand the human sensibility many inter-disciplinary methods should be used instead of one-variable approach. Micro-scopic studies such as Questionnaire, interview, behavioral analysis, and psychophysiological experiments can be performed. In addition, social and cultural studies are essential to understand an individual's sensibility. Results of sensibility studies can be applied to setup new interactions between human and machine through sensible(or affective) human-machine (computer) interfaces. Human-oriented and user-friendly products can be made with the information on human sensibility.
