Research on Skiing Apps Based on Flow Theory - Centred on User Needs -

초록

영어

Skiing, as a highly challenging and enjoyable outdoor activity, can stimulate users' positive emotions and immersive experiences, and the design of skiing apps plays an important supporting role in this. With the increasing number of ski related apps on the market, users' demand for mobile apps to assist in optimising their sports experience is also growing. This study selected four skiing apps as research objects according to the Google Play download ranking. These include Exa Ski Tracker, Ski Tracks, Slopes: Ski & Snowboard, and Skill: Ski & MTB. Taking the nine elements of the Flow Theory as the research benchmark, we distributed 177 questionnaires to users, and finally collected 172 valid questionnaires. The questionnaires were analysed using the Kano Model. The Better-Worse coefficient was used for reliability and validity testing to reduce the limitations of the results. The users' flow experience and demand for app functions resulting from the use of the app during skiing were also investigated. Finally, we proposed improvements for the four skiing apps based on our analysis results to better facilitate the flow experience of skiing enthusiasts, satisfy user needs, and enhance the overall sport experience.
