Emotional matching model construction of the interior interface form of age-friendly housing in Jinan city examined using Kansei engineering.

ABSTRACT: To better meet the emotional needs of older residents and to improve the design of age-friendly indoor interface forms, this study uses Kansei engineering as the theoretical basis for an exploration of the mapping relationship between emotional needs and interface forms. First, we collected spatial interface forms through in-home research, and using focus groups, we summarized and produced test samples for interface forms; at the same time, we screened out adjective word pairs that could fully represent the emotional needs of older people in the city of Jinan, drawing on expert interviews; then, we invited 500 older adults living in Jinan all year to evaluate each interface form using representative adjective word pairs as the emotional evaluation criteria, following the semantic different
