Outline of Final Research Achievements

There have been many researches investigating relationships between specific objects and human affective responses in the field of affective engineering. This research project investigated human impression of "beauty" independently to specific target objects.
Four researches measuring human affective responses to visual objects were carried out in this project. The results shows that there exists "explanation" of the structures of the objects and "resolution" of unstable objects to stable states commonly and independently to specific objects in human impression of beauty. It forms the base of modeling the common affective sense and shows a viewpoint of the design of new objects.
