Popis: The purposes of this study included: (1) identifying the specific design components of functional shoes that affect the psychological feeling of the elderly, and establishing their weights; (2) exploring the Kansei evaluation difference between single sense and multi-senses while using the functional shoes; and (3) exploring the preference on materials and colors of the functional shoes. The research process was divided into four stages: (1) choosing 6 Kansei words to be used in the visual, tactile and synesthesia experiments based on the results of the earlier study; (2) collecting and classifying the visual and tactile test elements of the functional shoes to be used as samples in the visual, tactile and synesthesia experiments; (3) Kansei experiment for the elderly on different DISC personality; (4) the analysis and discussion of the results for different DISC personality. The results show that (1) there is significant differences on the Kansei image of the shoes with different materials. In the tactile experiment of “shoe material”, the mesh material has the Kansei image of relieved, convenient, professional and delicate, but not comfortable or noble; (2) tactile, visual, and visual & tactile Kansei image are different even on the same material. The visual & tactile is highly correlated with single tactile image. For example, the “flannel” material has the image of “comfortable” both in the “tactile” and “visual & tactile” experiments, but of “relieved” while in the “visual” experiment; (3) the insole and shoe body share the same image, both have significant differences; (4) the results of the quantification theory type I show that “relieved”, “convenient”, “comfortable”, “professional”, “noble” and “delicate” are relevant to the “color of the shoe body” and the most influential category is “black” color.
