A Study Of The Network Interface Design Based On The Cognition Mentality

Web 2.0 induces a network age of the common people. The users not only passively read information on the network, but also actively create information simultaneously. In such a background, the common participation of the non-professional users put forward brand new demands to the network interface design. Among them, the most important demand is that the interface keeps"simple, natural, friendly, convenient and consistent". Therefore the humanization becomes the more and more important topic in the network interface design. The question, if the network interface design can meet the user cognition characteristics and can be propitious to the perception organization and processing, relates to the effect, efficiency and satisfaction of the user interface usage.However, the status quo of the network interface design humanization in our country is unsatisfactory, therefore the investigations on this topic becomes an emergent task. This thesis, through the literature search and the case analysis, starts with the cognition psychology, searches for the correlation between designers and users, and finally reaches the destination of the network design humanization by the analysis of a sequence of mental activities (such as the perceptions). The conclusion of the thesis is that the cognition psychology is an effective means for the network interface design level promotion in the Web 2.0 age, and that the study and investigation of the cognition psychology can facilitate building the humanized web sites, which are favorable for the users and easier for their usage.
