As a sports facility category, a sports bra is regarded as an enabling technology garment with advanced functions and new cultural meanings. Women, particularly elderly women, are encouraged to wear a sports bra during physical activity because wearing a sports bra can not only prevent them from exercise-induced injuries but also increase the acceptance of their bodies. However, most studies usually targeted younger women. The requirements and expectations of elderly women on sports bras differ from younger individuals. Hence, this study aims to advance and explore the design demands, providing insights into age-friendly sports bra design by using more permeable physical and psychological boundaries based on conceptual frameworks. The sports bra evaluation words were extracted and calculated to construct the network. The appearance frequency of keywords, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, and interconnection between every pair of words were illustrated and analyzed by using semantic-based network analysis. Network analysis deduced that the discomfort of sports bras was closely related with the support, tightness, cup design, and strap design. Beside, thermal management contributes significantly to the comfort. The outlook of a sports bra was associated with cup design. The Page-rank result showed that cup, tightness, hot, straps and quality were the top five important design attributes. The unobservable mechanisms underlying the keywords provide an alternative model, which can help to explore the key improvements for sports bra design.

运动文胸设计属性与老年女性认知的相互联系

运动文胸作为运动设施品类，被视为具有先进功能和新文化内涵的赋能科技服装。鼓励女性，尤其是老年女性在进行体育锻炼时佩戴运动文胸，因为穿着运动文胸不仅可以防止运动引起的损伤，还可以增加对身体的接受度。然而，大多数研究通常针对年轻女性。老年女性对运动胸罩的要求和期望与年轻人不同。因此，本研究旨在推进和探索设计需求，通过使用基于概念框架的更具渗透性的身体和心理边界，提供对年龄友好型运动文胸设计的见解。提取并计算运动文胸评价词构建网络。使用基于语义的网络分析来说明和分析关键词的出现频率、接近中心性、介数中心性以及每对词之间的相互联系。网络分析得出，运动文胸的不适感与支撑度、松紧度、罩杯设计、肩带设计密切相关。此外，热管理对舒适度有显着贡献。运动文胸的外观与罩杯设计有关。Page-rank 结果显示罩杯、紧致度、热度、肩带和质量是前五个重要的设计属性。关键词背后的不可观察机制提供了一种替代模型，有助于探索运动文胸设计的关键改进。通过使用基于语义的网络分析来说明和分析每对单词之间的相互联系。网络分析得出，运动文胸的不适感与支撑度、松紧度、罩杯设计、肩带设计密切相关。此外，热管理对舒适度有显着贡献。运动文胸的外观与罩杯设计有关。Page-rank 结果显示罩杯、紧致度、热度、肩带和质量是前五个重要的设计属性。关键词背后的不可观察机制提供了一种替代模型，有助于探索运动文胸设计的关键改进。通过使用基于语义的网络分析来说明和分析每对单词之间的相互联系。网络分析得出，运动文胸的不适感与支撑度、松紧度、罩杯设计、肩带设计密切相关。此外，热管理对舒适度有显着贡献。运动文胸的外观与罩杯设计有关。Page-rank 结果显示罩杯、紧致度、热度、肩带和质量是前五个重要的设计属性。关键词背后的不可观察机制提供了一种替代模型，有助于探索运动文胸设计的关键改进。此外，热管理对舒适度有显着贡献。运动文胸的外观与罩杯设计有关。Page-rank 结果显示罩杯、紧致度、热度、肩带和质量是前五个重要的设计属性。关键词背后的不可观察机制提供了一种替代模型，有助于探索运动文胸设计的关键改进。此外，热管理对舒适度有显着贡献。运动文胸的外观与罩杯设计有关。Page-rank 结果显示罩杯、紧致度、热度、肩带和质量是前五个重要的设计属性。关键词背后的不可观察机制提供了一种替代模型，有助于探索运动文胸设计的关键改进。
