Abstract

This study analyzed the influence of MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) personality types on preferences for user interface (UI) design in music applications. Through an online survey, 535 responses were collected, and data were processed using ANOVA analysis in Python. The analysis revealed that certain MBTI types tend to prefer combinations of warm and neutral color tones, aligning with their artistic sensibilities and emphasis on harmony. Conversely, other MBTI types show a preference for colder color tones or combinations of cold and neutral tones, reflecting their practical and systematic tendencies. Additionally, it was found that UI layout preferences also vary according to personality types. Some MBTI types exhibit a preference for the 'Mostly Fluid' model, reflecting their efficient and systematic nature. These findings underscore the importance of considering users' individual personality types in UI design for music applications.

본 연구는 MBTI(Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) 성격 유형이 음악 애플리케이션의 사용자 인터페이스(UI) 디자인 취향에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 온라인 설문을 통해 535명의 응답을 수집하고, Python을 사용한 ANOVA 분석을 통해 데이터를 처리하였다. 분석 결과, 어떤 MBTI 유형은 따뜻한 색조와 중성 색조의 조합을 선호하는 경향이 있으며, 이는 그들의 예술적 감각과 조화를 중시하는 성향과 일치한다. 반면에 어떤 MBTI 유형은 주로 차가운 색조나 차가운 색조와 중성 색조의 조합을 선호하는 경향을 보이는데, 이는 그들의 실용적이고 체계적인 성향을 반영한다. 또한, 우리는 UI 레이아웃 선호도 또한 성격 유형에 따라 다르다는 것을 발견했다. 어떤 MBTI 유형은 'Mostly Fluid' 모델을 선호하는 경향이 있는데, 이는 그들의 효율적이고 체계적인 성격을 반영한다. 이러한 발견은 음악 애플리케이션의 UI 디자인 시 사용자의 개인적인 성격 유형을 고려하는 것의 중요성을 강조한다.
