본 연구는 코로나19 팬데믹 동안 마스크 착용자에 대한 매력도와 사회적 인식 변화를 고찰한다. 코로나19 이전에는 마스크가 감염 신호로 여겨져 매력도를 감소시켰으나, 팬데믹 이후 마스크 착용이 일상화되면서 인식 메커니즘이 복잡해졌다. 마스크 착용자에 대한 매력도와 사회적 인식은 착용자의 기본 매력도, 인종, 마스크에 대한 인식 등에 따라 달라진다. 이로 인해 연구 결과가 일관되지 않다. 이는 실험 방법의 불일치와 피험자 개인차를 고려하지 못한 결과다. 정신의학적 관점에서 팬데믹 상황에서의 매력 인식을 연구하기 위해서는 행동면역계와 관련된 심리적 메커니즘을 중심으로 새로운 가설을 수립하고 검증해야 한다. 이는 대인 지각과 혐오가 정신건강에 미치는 영향을 이해하는 데 중요한 단서를 제공할 수 있다.

This study investigates the changes inconsumer sensibility and product preferences according to theirecofriendly productperceptions. Stimulants (released by three companies of sport casual brands)include three shirts made of recycled polyester and three made of organic cotton. A surveymethod was used to respond to the emotion and image while watching the presented pictures of the clothes. The change in the reactions was analyzed before and after the presentation of eco-friendliness information. The questionnaire consists of sensibility adjectives, open-ended questions about the associated image of eco-friendliness, color attractiveness, product favorability, price satisfaction, and reasons for an eco-friendly productpurchase. The survey was conducted on 200adult male and female participants. Two factors ('eco' and 'design')were identifiedthrough the factor analysis of image adjectives. There was a statistically significant increase in the evaluation of sensibility, color attractiveness, product favorability, and price satisfactiondue to the re-evaluation of the same products after consumers recognized the eco-friendly information of apparel products. When consumers recognize products aseco-friendly, they evaluate the products more positively than before. The result of the analysis of the increases by textile materials shows no significant difference in the sensibility changes depending on the materials. However, with regard to 'eco', the increase of sensibility change for organic cotton products was larger than for recycled polyester products.

본 연구는 사회적 상호작용에서 필수적인 얼굴 인상형성 과정 중 가장 대표적이라고 할 수 있는 매력도와 신뢰성을 평가할 때 시각적 주의에서의 차이가 나타나는지를 관찰하기 위해 고안되었다. 실험 1에서는 참가자들이 얼굴 신뢰성과 매력도를 평가하는 동안 안구추적기(eye-tracker)를 사용하여 사람들의 시선움직임을 측정하고, 이 후 히트맵(heatmap) 분석을 통해 평가과제 간 차이를 관찰하였다. 그 결과, 사람들은 매력도를 평가할 때와 비교하여 신뢰성을 평가할 때, 얼굴의 주요요소라 할 수 있는 눈과 코 부위에서 더 많은 시선응시가 일어나는 것을 관찰하였다. 또한, 실험 2에서는 참가자들이 실험 1과 동일한 얼굴 평가과제를 수행하는 동안 얼굴의 각 요소에 단어를 짧게 제시하였다. 실험종료 후 실시된 회상검사 결과, 신뢰성 평가과제 시 코부위에 제시되었던 단어의 회상률이 매력도 평가과제 시와 비교하여 유의미하게 높은 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 얼굴 신뢰성 판단은 시각적인 주의적 자원(attentional resources)의 할당과 관련된 측면에서 얼굴 매력도와는 구분되는 정보처리과정을 거치는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
