Perceived Function: An Investigation into a Product Advantage between Aesthetics and Function
Abstract This study involved an empirical comparison of product competitiveness driven by aesthetic and technological innovations in a mature market. This study began with a theoretical idea that users may perceive and evaluate technology development through the visible form of a product. Statistica...
