the simultaneous presentation of and other sensory stimuli no studies investigated the effects of different stimulus combinations. effects of the of Abstract: We examined the degree to which relaxation was induced by the presentation of a comfortable thermal foot stimulation paired with other sensory stimuli. We presented a movie of an underwater scene, classical music, light blue illumination, vibrations to the trunk, and grapefruit odor as relaxing stimuli in combination with thermal stimulation, and measured physiological responses of the autonomic nervous system (electrocardiogram, respiration, fingertip pulse wave, peripheral blood flow, and sweating). All stimulus combinations induced parasympathetic activation compared with an initial control. In particular, the presentation of an odor with thermal stimulation elicited a remarkable degree of parasympathetic activation. We verified differences in the latency and duration of physiological responses depending on the stimuli combination. However, subjective relaxation was not confirmed, and parasympathetic activation for combined stimuli did not remarkably differ from that for thermal stimulation alone. These results indicate that thermal stimulation has a powerful effect on relaxation induction.

: Anti-drug education is one of the important and necessary educational activities for young people. In this paper, a virtual reality based (VR-based) material for learning anti-drug skills is proposed. By using the learning material, learners are exposed in a virtual unsafe drug situation, and can feel the dangerousness seriously to learn the harms and risks of drug abuse while improving their abilities to refuse drugs. In order to evaluate the proposed material, it was compared with video-based learning material which has the same contents with the VR-based learning material. Experiments were conducted and the results were analyzed from the aspects of effect on the users’ attitudes, users’ satisfaction, and anti-drug self-efficacy. As the result, it became clear that learners can learn effectively with the VR-based learning material more than with the video-based learning material.

: Emotion is one of the predetermined aspects that lead to non-compliance behaviour by a user in the Information Security (IS) domain. Four prominent emotions have been recognized in IS, which are fear, stress, trust, and rage. In this study, fear will be highlighted as the scope to explain fear in IS through design concept. This paper discusses how to characterize fear as stimuli for user emotional assessment in IS through the design concept of information security dialog user interface design (UID). Recent research made by other researchers shows that too low and too high levels of fear lead to user reluctance and resistance behaviour. Thus, it is essential to conduct a study to suggest methodology and procedural details in measuring fear and propose the relationship between the level of fear and user compliance behaviour toward IS procedures and policies. This study adopted part of Kansei Engineering, and KJ Method in measuring fear towards IS dialog box UID as the artefact. This study characterizes fear emotion in the IS domain based on users’ compliance response towards the artefacts. Findings from this study will give a new perspective on emotion, particularly for fear toward design in the IS domain and serve as the foundation of emotion in the IS field concerning Kansei and Affective Sciences.

: Despite the great potential of data platforms to help solve societal issues, the actual usage of data platforms is still limited due to the lack of consideration of socio-technical aspects. To understand requirements from multiple actors on a vitality data platform, semi-structured interviews were conducted with three groups of actors: representatives of organizations involved in vitality (N=8), government officials (N=10), and citizens (N=20). From these interviews, we got an understanding of the multidimensionality of vitality data and got an insight into the different expectations on the vitality data platform among those actors. Citizens strive to gain general information such as advice for healthy living. On the other hand, the two other groups of participants generally expect low-level data. Our findings suggest that data has to be presented in multiple formats and social discussion features are required to connect those different actors on data platforms.

This study aimed to identify the psychological variables that can mediate an influence of color focality on color preference in modern Japanese culture and to specify the pattern of the mediated influence. The potential mediators were 22 appraisal dimensions and the psychological processing fluency (PPF) of colors. We conducted two experiments with native Japanese speakers, which measured these variables. Data analyses showed that gracefulness is the only appraisal dimension that can mediate an effect of color focality on color preference. Specifically, focality negatively influenced the appraisal of gracefulness and gracefulness positively impacted preference. Although a U-shaped quadratic relationship exists between focality and PPF, no relationship was found between PPF and preference. Therefore, PPF’s role as a mediator is not supported. Our literature survey suggests that the focality-gracefulness-preference relationship may be caused by the “noisy color phenomenon,” which is a cultural phenomenon existing in many color-using areas in modern Japan.

: For patients who have suffered a stroke and are undergoing rehabilitation, the motivation for recovery and achievement of independence is a major factor that must be considered for effective treatment. A patient’s sense of agency affects their motivation for activities, such as rehabilitation. This study was conducted to investigate the motivation and sense of agency of patients with cerebrovascular disease who were undergoing rehabilitation and to examine the influence of nursing involvement on improving patient independence. This study of inpatients in a rehabilitation hospital ward was conducted using questionnaires. Our results suggest that sense of agency may affect patient motivation during hospitalization and was influenced by nursing support for independence. Interventions targeted to improve the patient’s sense of agency were shown to be a potentially effective method for improving the patient’s rehabilitative motivation. Nursing support for independence provides a promising effective strategy for improving the patient’s sense of agency.

: The effect of the provision of “Neither-Good-Nor-Bad” (NGNB) information on the trustworthiness of agents has been reported. However, in this previous study, the size of the profits generated by the NGNB information was fixed at 50% of the maximum profit, even though this ratio can vary in practical situations. Furthermore, in this experiment, all the consequences were disclosed to the users, including those that they had not chosen. In practical situations, we are often unaware of consequences that we have not chosen. In this study, we focus on these two factors and investigate the effects of them on the trustworthiness of the agents. Experimental results reveal that the agent that reliably provides the NGNB information tends to gain a greater degree of users’ trust in a situation where it is harder to obtain large profits, and when consequences that they had not chosen were not disclosed to them.

they do possess the necessary insight to manufacture products that meet customer demands. Accordingly, we hypothesized that several traditional industries in study, we analyzed the subconscious Kansei and desires of users to gain accurate insights into customer aspirations without repeating previous failures. We propose a marketing model based on new metrics, and considered the Kaga Yuzen industry is as a sample for testing our hypothesis. This study aims to address the gap between product manufacturers and end users. Currently, all product design processes are operated solely on designer process intuition in the absence of a clearly defined procedure. Even if a company has a clear industrial design process, sometimes, it may overlook some important elements. Therefore, we need to determine the priority areas and formulate a design approach to be followed to meet user expectations. Abstract: This study analyzes subconscious Kansei and desires by determining the behavior and feelings of customers (e.g., sensation, cognition, and emotion) to obtain an appropriate design methodology. This study aims to address gaps between product manufacturers and customers. This allows identification of the priority areas, and design approach to be followed to meet user expectations. A set of qualitative research methods was used to quantify potential sensibilities. In addition to observing human reactions to Kansei information processing, we identify market consumption behaviors to facilitate systematic prediction of potential customer demands. We propose a Kansei marketing model providing insights to release products and to explore product design possibilities. We discuss the use of this model in a real-world setting and the missing parts needed to make it practical. The importance of this study lies in its potential application to sustainable economic activities.

: This study employed the peak-end rule and the Kano model in the assessment of user satisfaction during the product-use experience. Because they reflect different aspects of user satisfaction, we investigated the similarities and differences between the two approaches and integrated them in the analysis of the product-use process. We find that the emotional component of the peak-end rule, which directly indicates the important emotions of the users, and the usability component of the Kano model, which provides useful information on product qualities, are particularly useful in assessing the product-use process. We believe that integrating these two methods generates abundant, specific, and useful knowledge that designers can use to more fully understand the user experience.
