Huang, S. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)The relevance of human needs is generally recognized in human-centered design research and practice. However, a challenge of working with needs is that the word “need” can be interpreted in various ways, which can hinder effective communication and collaboration. Need typologies, in such cases, can serve as a shared language by providing an...conference paper 2023

Sönmez, A. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author), Romero Herrera, N.A. (author)Even though group mood has a significant impact on organizational functioning, there is no typology available to describe distinct group moods. We propose that designing products and services to facilitate beneficial group mood experiences requires a granular and experience-oriented understanding of the phenomenon. This article introduces an...journal article 2022

Yoon, J.K. (author), Pohlmeyer, A.E. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author), Kim, C (author)ABSTRACT Central to the present paper is the question of how designers can be supported to deliberately facilitate positive emotional experiences. Related to this, the paper provides an overview of the research on design for positive emotions, its issues, and opportunities for further investigations. The practical relevance of transcending the...journal article 2020

Desmet, P.M.A. (author), Fokkinga, S.F. (author)This paper introduces a design-focused typology of psychological human needs that includes 13 fundamental needs and 52 sub-needs (four for each fundamental need). The typology was developed to provide a practical understanding of psychological needs as a resource for user-centered design practice and research with a focus on user experience and...journal article 2020

Xue, H. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)We challenge the unquestioning pursuit of the appearance of objectivity and ingrained designer-user dualism in human-centred design research and propose a<br/>resurrection of introspection as a valid approach to investigating subjective experiences. Through comparing epistemic perspectives and reviewing the<br/>histories of introspection in...journal article 2019

Pohlmeyer, A.E. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)In this chapter, we outline why and how design can (and cannot) support the sustainable wellbeing of individuals and communities. Building on findings of well-being researchers, we first address the reasons why material well-being, as experienced through the consumpfion and ownership of products and goods, does not necessarily contribute to...book chapter 2017

Yoon, J. (author), Pohlmeyer, A.E. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)The range of positive emotions experienced in human-product interactions is multifarious. Differentiating positive emotions (e.g., joy, love, hope, and interest) and having an awareness of associated expressive interaction qualities (e.g., playful, careful, persistent and focused interaction) can support designers to influence users'...journal article 2017

Laurans, Gaël (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)Graphical self-report tools are increasingly used to collect data<br/>on users’ emotional responses to products, yet most of these tools have<br/>only undergone minimal validation. A systematic set of animations was<br/>developed to allow participants in design research and other fields to report<br/>their feelings without relying on the nuances...journal article 2017

Yoon, J (author), Pohlmeyer, A.E. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)This paper reports a study that explored the usefulness of positive emotional granularity (PEG) in the product development process. PEG<br/>reflects the ability to interpret and represent the experience of positive emotions with precision and specificity. Interviews were conducted<br/>with twenty-five design professionals to understand their...journal article 2016

Fokkinga, S.F. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)This paper demonstrates how designers can enrich user experiences by purposefully involving negative emotions in user-product interaction. This approach is derived from a framework of rich experience, which explains how and under what circumstances negative emotions make a product experience richer and enjoyable. The approach consists of three...journal article 2013

Tonetto, L.M. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)This paper presents an approach to developing surveys that measure user experiences with the use of natural everyday language. The common approach to develop questionnaires that measure experience is to translate theoretical factors into verbal survey items. This theory-based approach can impair the questionnaire’s ecological validity because...conference paper 2012

Fokkinga, S.F. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)Mixed emotions are at the basis of some of life’s richest experiences. However, in other instances they are inferior to experiences that elicit just positive emotions. A phenomenological study was carried out to find out which kinds of situations evoke mixed emotions, how these emotions influence and transform people’s subjective experience, and...conference paper 2012
