Grid of attributes method: evaluating the relationship between user and environment

Método de avaliação, Modelo configuracional, Abrigo de ônibusAbstract
Este artigo trata do desenvolvimento de método gráfico, apoiado em um modelo configuracional, capaz de representar, simultaneamente, atributos funcionais de conforto e comportamento de usuários em abrigos de ônibus. A partir da avaliação das condições de espera (posicionamento) dos usuários, pôde-se definir fatores físicos – denominados “atributos” – prioritários para o conforto dos usuários. Dados representados no ambiente gráfico do método foram transportados para um ambiente computacional, o que possibilitou a aferição estatística da freqüência do comportamento e sua correlação com os atributos. Os resultados estatísticos da aplicação do método indicam uma possível hierarquia entre os atributos estudados e sua correlação com o desenho do objeto. This article is concerned with the development of a graphical method, based on a configurational model, capable of representing simultaneously the waiting conditions and the users’ behavior at bus stop shelters. Through the observation of positioning it was possible to describe physical factors – named attributes – that are considered relevant for their comfort. The data represented in the method have been transported to a computational environment, thus allowing the statistic gauging of the behavior frequency and its correlation with the attributes. The statistical results of the application of the method indicate a possible hierarchy among the attributes that were investigated and their correlations with the object design.Downloads
