This research examined a total of 1,240 papers including 537 papers of DBPIA dealt with the research of the oldest, 40 papers concerning the research of visual perception, and 663 papers published in the journal of the Korean Gerontological Society, analyzing contents related with the visual perception of the oldest (the aged, the oldest, color, illumination, sight, visual perception). The result of the research shows that while research related with the oldest has increased, research concerning the visual perception of the oldest has lacked in its contents. Thus, the research suggests the necessity of various researches to grasp characteristics of the visual perception of the oldest. Also, it proposes to develop tools that can help the oldest independently live, along with the necessity of designs appropriate to their living environment. |
