Abstract

In order to meet the safety, comfort and efficiency goals and human-centered usability requirements of the elderly at home in the process of using products, an age-appropriate design research method for household products based on the FBM model is proposed. This study firstly elaborates the specific theoretical contents of the FBM behavior model, and identifies three elements: behavior motivation, behavior ability and trigger factors. Secondly, taking the elderly at home as the research object, the design process of home products for the elderly is explored in three dimensions: target users, behavioral characteristics and design objects, a progressive behavioral hierarchy prototype of behavioral cognition is established, the interaction and experience of the elderly at home is constructed, and the definition of home products is clarified. Analyzing the mapping relationship between the behavior of external elements such as structure and form of aging-friendly design and product function. Finally, the aging design principles of home products are systematically mined, organized, and integrated so that the elderly at home can use the products more accurately, naturally, easily, and smoothly. Introducing the FBM model into the study of age-appropriate design of household products, focusing on the analysis of the behavioral characteristics of the elderly, can effectively avoid subjective factors in age-appropriate product design, ensure that the design requirements of age-appropriate products originate from behavior, and improve the scientific nature of the design. It provides new methods and ideas for the design and research of age-appropriate products and similar products.
