with the display, but such arrangements would probably have improved both self-rated and measured performance. 7. Main conclusions. There was a large spread in the judgments; for many questions the whole 7-point scale was utilized. Thus there were visitors who "not at all agreed" or "strongly disagreed" with the positive statements, as well as visitors who "agreed very much" or "Strongly agreed". It should be noted that the present study was based on self-ratings of performance. Their relations to performance measured with objective methods are uncertain. Such measurements can provide both better and worse results. However, it is quite evident that the visitors in general found the experience of the haptic display amusing. High mean judgments were also obtained for questions about the instructiveness of the experience, and the positive judgments are in majority concerning the questions about "suggesting friends to visit" and "wanting similar devices in other museums". On the other side, the improvements suggested indicate that many visitors wanted to be able to more <strong>full</strong>y utilize the capacities of the haptic sense, especially to use larger parts of the hands. A haptic display with suitable such possibilities can be expected to be more satisfactory. This conclusion is strengthened by our own and others’ research mentioned above indicating the effects of constraints of the information in all present-day haptic displays. Concerning the use of the haptic display for aesthetic experience of objects of art it must be noted that aesthetic aspects have not been covered in this study. The participants’ tasks were to judge the experience of physical properties of the objects of art. A study of aesthetic aspects remains to be done. 8. References [1].
