Study about the Psychological Influences of “Like” in SNS and its Graphic Design

Abstract

This research aimed to clarify the problems of "like" that SNS dependents feel, and to propose a new "like" design that does not induce dependence or fatigue. From the research and interviews with SNS users, we made a new "like" sample and conducted an impression evaluation about the samples and the current "like" on questionnaire via Internet. From the results of the survey, we clarified that SNS dependence can be suppressed when the number of "like" is expressed abstractedly.
