Research Abstract |
This study aims to provide an understanding of the Kansei evaluation model in human sciences. Kansei means subjective criteria work on the emotional aspects of events (Lee, 2000) and the high order function of the brain to impart sources of inspiration, intuition, pleasure/displeasure, taste, curiosity, aesthetics and creation. In a previous study (Lee 2001), we found several patterns for evaluation when people appreciated paintings or products. This study contains how Kansei works on design approaches and the relationship it has with personality through brain waves. It introduces experiments on brain waves when people engage in various behaviors. This idea originated in the human sciences but has recently been extended to interdisciplinary fields including the medical and neural sciences. In the experiment, the data were analyzed by taking into account each subject's personality and high frequency brain waves. Subjects who were in the N-(stable) area, tended to relax easily in new circumstances and could easily concentrate on the task. The results indicate that, in supporting creativity, tactile experience is useful in increasing neural reactions. Creation may arise from a situation involving concentration with a little tension within a relaxed setting. Future studies on the correlation between creativity and personality monitored through brain waves, needs detailed tasks with professional, design-experienced subjects.
