RESEARCH ON THE APPLICATION OF DESIGN PSYCHOLOGY IN THE DESIGN OF MEDICINE BOXES FOR THE ELDERLY
The current medicine box for elderly users is mainly a storage container,without taking into account the behavioral characteristics and emotional needs of this specific group.This huge market space is in urgent need of designers to carry out research and design practice.In this paper,we study the psychology and behavior of elderly users from the perspective of design psychology,and propose a set of product design strategies to alleviate the anxiety and fear of elderly users in the process of taking medicine,and practice the design of medicine boxes accordingly.A smart pill box design that meets the psychology of elderly users and their needs is designed to provide a reference for the development of design psychology theory,and the application of design psychology in product design.The design should start from the psychological level of elderly users to better consider their psychological needs,and this study can provide a reference model for other related product designs.
