What drives smartwatch purchase intention? Perspectives from hardware,software, design,and value

Although wearable devices are popular in recent years, the market share of smartwatches is relatively low. The main goal of this research is to investigate the antecedents of the intention to purchase a smartwatch. This research develops a conceptual model and hypotheses based on the theory of reasoned action and perceived values from the perspectives of software, hardware, and aesthetic design. An online questionnaire was developed and distributed on popular websites to collect data, and 260 usable responses are collected from the potential users of the Apple Watch in Taiwan. The thirteen hypotheses were validated by using partial least squares (PLS) techniques. Among the antecedents of purchase intention in the model, the attitude towards using smartwatches was found to have the strongest direct effect. Among the factors of the attitude, design aesthetics have the most significant effect. The results also show that all of the factors about smartwatch attributes directly affected the related perceived values. However, social value and performance/quality value did not affect the intention. The model demonstrated relatively good explanatory power for purchase intention in the context of smartwatches. The proposed model can provide insights to smartwatch vendors to develop their new products and marketing strategies.

论艺术形式的崇高

崇高是人类的一个古老的美学范畴，自从古希腊学者朗吉纳斯在《论崇高》一文中提出后即受到历代美学家的关注和肯定。艺术形式的崇高包含有悲剧的崇高和喜剧的崇高。崇高是人类思维的凝聚，现代社会的崇高是对于古典崇高的继承与发展。     

物理学美与物理教学中的美育

物理学是具有丰富科学美内涵的学科。物理学中的简单、对称与和谐之美折射出人类对科学美的追求历程，具有重要的美育价值。然而，物理教学往往注重物理学的技术价值而忽视物理学的美育价值。在大学推进素质教育的今天，重新审视物理学科学美的内涵，探讨物理教学中的美育以及实施美育的途径，是迫切而重要的。

Berlyne on art: A review of D. E. Berlyne's Aesthetics and psychobiology.

Reviews the book, Aesthetics and Psychobiology by D. E. Berlyne (see record 1973-00821-000). Progress in the aesthetic disciplines has been at a snail's pace. Berlyne charges six factors with having impeded advance: the belief in art as a supernatural phenomenon, the failure to separate factual from normative questions, the conception of art as a unitary phenomenon, the habit of treating art in isolation from nonartistic forms of behavior, the preoccupation with uniqueness in aesthetic taste, and the concentration on verbal judgments in aesthetic work. But the future looks brighter, due primarily to the following developments: (1) the rise of information theory, which provides procedures for rigorously analyzing some of the features of stimulus patterns that most concern aesthetics, (2) recent empirical and theoretical contributions in both psychology and neurophysiology to the understanding of pleasure and arousal, and (3) findings bearing on the nature of exploratory behavior, both in animals and humans, particularly as these teach the motivational importance of such elements as complexity, novelty and uncertainty, so-called "collative" variables, that "seem to be identifiable with the irreducibly essential ingredients of art and of whatever else is aesthetically appealing" (viii). The principal aim of Berlyne's book is to establish the ground gained in these three areas, compare it to the contributions made by earlier workers, and effectuate "a provisional synthesis that will at least bring key problems to the fore" (viii). It is a formidable task. Inevitably, the effort fares better in some assignments than others. Ironically, what discrepancies in quality do exist would probably project less were Berlyne not so knowledgeable about his subject matter. He is, quite obviously, in the tradition of those "cultured gentlemen" with whom he is wont to populate the early history of psychological science. Parenthetically, one suspects that he could supplement the present work with a very creditable companion volume in the philosophy of aesthetics.

Words, music, and other measures: Predicting the repertoire popularity of 597 Schubert lieder.

To address the venerable aesthetic question of the relative importance of music and words, musical and textual characteristics were used to predict recording counts of 597 Franz Schubert lieder. Predictors included career variables (age and concurrent productivity), "whole song" variables (e.g., performance duration, structural complexity, major vs. minor key), thematic measures of the first six notes of the vocal incipit (e.g., melodic and rhythmic originality), poet variables (Goethe, Schiller, etc.), and text variables (computer content analysis measures of primordial and conceptual thought and positive and negative emotions). Many correlations between predictors were small but reliable; career variables accounted for most strong correlations. A 45-predictor regression model was highly significant (R2 = .63), with 13 reliable (p
