Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to find how the properties of “Visual Cognition Factors” as the factors that comprise the appearances of the products influence“Visual Usability” as the first impressions of user-friendliness of consumers . The subjects of our study were elderly consumers and young adults. Results showed that properties of “Visual Cognition Factors “that influenced “Visual Usability” were almost similar for both groups, and the properties such as“Simplicity”, ”Familiarity”, ”Conformity” and “Emphasizing the functions” were advantage.
