| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 設計學系 === 106 === The principle of interface design can help designers to create more friendly user interface. Through reviews of literature and references of user interface design, we found that most of the principles are too general, and the sub-principles are lack of attention. With the changes of type in the tourism industry, local in-depth travel has become the trend of travel, which has created the demand and market for the tour guide service. Therefore, this research takes tour guides matching service application as an example to develop the principles and sub-principles of interface design. This study has three stages: First, we reviewed literature and references such as the tourism industry, the matching service platform, the smart mobile device and the user interface. This study preliminary summed up eight basic principles of user interface design, which includes "Mapping to the real world and user perception", "Visibility of system”, “Offer informative feedback”, “Interface consistency”, “Keep user to control”, “Reduced memory load”, “Error prevention and recover”, and “Simple and easy to understand”. Second, we invited four interface design experts from the industry to use the eight principles to evaluate the case, and complete in-depth interviews based on the evaluation results. Then, we analyzed the results of the interview and developed the principles of tour guides matching service application for user interface design. We have obtained a total of sixty-one sub-principles. Third, based on the previous results, we try to use these principles to design and re-assess the design outcome. The results of this study conclude: (1) The principles of user interface design for this type should also be considered user friendly and affinity. (2) These principles may contradict each other according to the application’s demand, function or type, so designers should have holistic thinking and make appropriate adjustments. (3) Designers can use these principles in different design stages. In early stage, it is helpful to create design guidelines. From mid to end stages, it can be used as an examination tool for the interface design. (4) As this type of matching service has safety consideration, interface can offer users more information such as evaluating and scoring to select suitable tour guides. The result of this research will benefit designers to use these principles as the guideline for relevant matching service interface development, which be the reference of interface design related research.
