This research aims to develop a procedure that help transform user's feelings or images of a product into the product's design elements. Current approach of product design has focused on providing proper functions of the product. However, as the users' needs get more diversified, it is necessary to accommodate the users' sensitive requirements in product design. The concept called Human Sensibility Ergonomics(HSE). In implementing the HSE, first, it has been surveyed the users' requirements through questionnaires or interviews. Next, has been analyzed the collected data using various statistical analysis technique, resulting in identification of the users' feelings or images of the products.

In many fields, Kansei engineering, often called Human Sensibility Ergonomics, has been applied to the product development for customer's satisfaction. Also, it may use to a lot of products and environments related to human's convenient life. If the measurement and the validation of human sensibility are accomplished subjectively and qualitatively, then a good design is expected. This paper considers an application of one of the Kansei engineering's techniques, extraction and categorization of the sensory words, to the products of mobile telecommunication units. First, 1st sensory words were extracted from Korean dictionary, catalogues, pamphlets, etc. Second, 2nd sensory words were extracted from the questionnaires, elimination of synonym, advise of expert, etc. Third, final sensory words were extracted from questionnaires, etc. Fourth, ask to answer the questionnaires with the extracted words in the five-grade semantic differential. Finally, The factor analysis is used to categorize the extracted sensory words, and shows that the words can be grouped into some categories.

User's sensibility has an important effect upon appreciating household electronic appliances and user's feeling of satisfaction with products has a good effect on the choice of product on purchasing those items. In this point of view, the human-oriented approach of product development system can be adopted as Human Sensibility Engineering. The target of changed development system is to define user's sensibility factors and to apply them to design and development. In this study, the human sensibility ergonomics approach and usability test have been applied to the development and evaluation of an electronic product model.

CNS (Car Navigation System) is the most compatible candidate among various in-vehicle information systems as a provider of ITS (Intelligence Transport Systems) information. It generally consists of remote controller, display, CD-changer, GPS receiver and so on. Among them, display is the most important and critical element of the HMI (Human-Machine Interface) suggesting the digital map to the driver. Therefore, it is certain that the display gives cognitive, physical, mental and visual workloads to the driver which are directly related with the driver's and road safety with the success of ITS. Until now, various human factors techniques have been developed and applied to estimate the driver's workload and to collect the driver's requirements of the CNS digital map, for example, mental workload assessment, visual activity analysis, cognitive analysis and so on. In addition to these kinds of techniques, this research performed the human sensibility ergonomics approach to directly investigate and evaluate the driver's requirements and sensibilities of the real products.

For design research of teenagers' posture correcting shirt, postures of teenagers were analyzed and became the base of inventing suitable patterns. The subjects of this study were 198 of both female and male middle school students from the city of Seoul. Students' postures in classroom and length change of body surface were observed and analyzed; based on this, total of 5 postures was selected, and length changes of body surface were applied. The patterns in this study were designed with stretch material to help antagonism by muscle movements. Each fabric that was used in this study had 110% of stretch, 120~140% of stretch, and 150~170% of stretch. Both of one-way-fabric and duplex-fabric were used in this study, depending on application site.

개인과 조직을 둘러싼 환경은 급변하고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 최근의 세간에 화제가 되고 있는 애플(Apple) 컴퓨터의 스티브 잡스와 아바타(Avatar)의 영화감독 캐머린의 리더십 특성을 확인하는 것도 흥미있는 일이다. Apple과 Avater의 신화는 첫 글자 'A'를 가지고 나타낼 수 있는 'A리더십'의 결과라고 할 수 있다. A리더십의 특징은 창조와 혁신을 통해서 끊임없이 차별적인 제품을 개발하는 데 있다. 현재, 우리나라의 기업가 정신을 대표하는 혁신과 도전의 정신이 퇴색한다고 걱정을 하고있다. 이에 기술이 보편적으로 평준화된 시대에서 최신 기술을 응용한 기본 기능에 차별적인 감성과 철학, 예술이 녹아있는 A리더십을 통해서 새로운 변화를 모색해야 한다. 이를 통해서 고객이 행복감을 맛볼 수 있게 해야 한다. A리더십에 관한 내용을 정리하면서 환경변화에 대비하는 것은 발상의 전환, 창의적인 아이디어, 끊임없는 혁신과 도전 마인드, 그리고 공격적인 실행으로 고객이 감동할 수 있는 제품과 서비스를 제공하는 것이 중요함을 확인하게 된다.

Human sensibility ergonomics is the technology of measuring human sensibility, applying informaiton to the design of products, systems, and environments for convenient, comfort, and safe human use, and pleasuring human life. This study introduce the research contents and strategy on the human sensibility ergonomics project, which started as one of the national research projects of Korea. The objective of the project is to construct the basis of application technology for human-centered products and environments design in order to enhance the competitive power of the products and the quality of human life. The project consists of three main parts, that is, development of fundamental technology for human sensibility, development of simulator for measurement and evaluation of human sensibility, and development of application technology for products and environments. Total research funds is 70million dollars for 7 years.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of nurses' emotional labor and the importance of leaders' emotional intelligence roles by verifying them with job satisfaction and organizational commitment for 396 nurses at 8 university hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggi province. It was found that emotional labor had a negative relationship with job satisfaction and organizational commitment. And leaders' emotional intelligence has a significant positive relationship with job satisfaction and organizational commitment. However, leaders' emotional intelligence has no moderation effect on emotional labor and dependent variables. As this study shows that emotional labor and leader's emotional intelligence affect organizational effectiveness of hospital nurses, it would be important to not only manage members' emotional labor but to also develop the emotional intelligence of both leaders and the staff.

어린이 가구는 어른 가구의 축소가 아닌 새로운 제품 분야이다. 이미 많은 업체에서 어린이 가구를 출시하는데 대체적으로 안전성을 이유로 고가의 제품이다. 지금 사회의 가구 구성의 다양화로 인한 어린이가구가 한 제품의 분야가 되었기 때문이다. 이에 어린이 가구에 대한 안전성이 높아졌으며 실용성과 안전성을 최우선으로 하고 있다. 이는 어린이들이 가구를 놀이용으로 신체적 접촉을 하고 있기 때문이다. 가구의 특징으로 어린이들의 피부에 접촉이 잦고 가구의 재질에 따른 촉감 등에 반응할 수 있기 때문이다. 이는 어린이가 어린이가구에 부딪히는 느낌, 이용성, 재미와도 연결되어 감성을 키울 수 있다고 본다. 어린이들은 표현성이 미흡하기 때문에 어린이가구의 안전성에 보다 더 주의해야한다고 여긴다. 즉 어린이가구의 안전성을 추구는 실제적 구매욕구를 가지고 있는 소비자인 부모들의 인식에 변화가 필요하가다. 어린이 가구의 시장은 중국이나 동남아에서 제조되어 한국으로 들어오는 경우가 있다. 그러므로 안전성에 대한 인식을 위해 재질과 실용성을 가미한 어린이 가구가 필요하다.

The relationship between the product design and product image can be defined using human sensibility. If there is a way to grasp the product value or product design that people want most, it could be possible to make and sell user-oriented products. In human sensibility ergonomics, the categories of design factor can be broken into shape and color of the design. Although, the color is the major factor of the design, however, texture were is also an important factor for the shape. In this study, wall-papers that have various shapes of texture were used for the experiment. The purpose of this study was to conduct a sensibility estimation experiment for the product image, and to estimate the parameters of various textures for creating new textures that could be more suitable for human sensibility.
