本研究是運用感性工學之理論設計折疊式腳踏車最佳化外型,建構以使用者為設計中心,研究分析折疊式腳踏車外觀造型與感性工學之關聯。主要研究方法是利用問卷調查及運用統計方法進行,研究步驟分成三個階段、九個程序執行;第一階段為感性形容詞語句字彙與設計要素的選擇及分類,有五個程序,分別為:蒐集感性形容詞語句字彙、感性形容詞的選擇及分類、蒐集折疊式腳踏車樣本、執行問卷調查、應用SPSS軟體進行因素分析。第二階段為意象與設計要素之結合,三個程序分別為:篩選後的感性詞彙搭配樣本進行問卷設計及發放、回收問卷並統計回收資料、應用數量化理論I類分析。第三階段的執行程序則將最後的統計結果進行分析及驗證。其中在收集感性語彙、建立意象空間及關聯性分析均使用問卷調查法。在統計方法中,因素分析之因素負荷量用於建立感性形容詞與意象空間上之關聯性,數量化理論Ⅰ類及複迴歸分析則用於分析意象語彙與設計要素的關聯性。
The goal of this study is to identify the design elements of folding bicycle by using Kansei Engineering. This study based on the user-centered concept attempts to construct the relationship between the design of folding bicycle and the feeling of users. The questionnaire method is used in this study. The steps of this study are: the collection and classification of Kansei words, the analysis of Knasei words and design elements, and the verification of results. The contribution of this study is to provide a method for the designers in the design of folding bicycle. A table of design suggestion is proposed for designer. By following the design suggestion table, the designers are able to consider the complex relationship between the users and the product. A sample of folding bicycle based on the results of this study was demonstrated.
