Abstract
In order to improve the comfort of aircraft economy class, the personal space theory of environmental psychology is introduced to study the effect of the passengers′ personal space intrusion on the comfort design. Through the survey, the specific form, feeling and influence degree of the passengers′ personal space invasion on the comfort were obtained. The mixed variance analysis showed that the influence degree had significantly difference with the passengers′ gender, age and education level. Using DEMATEL method, it is found that tactile sensation and other senses are the largest result and cause dimension respectively, and the centrality of physical space and tactile feeling is far greater than the other two dimensions. Optimizing the corresponding cabin design indicators can improve the comfort of aircraft economy class.
