Benefits of Using Light : Study on Effect of LED Emblem for Pregnant Women
 
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to improve social protection and benefits for pregnant women with the usage of LED care emblem. The study was conducted in the Seoul Metro by two research assistants on January 20th to 30th, 2015. One of subjects wore the LED care emblem and the other was present to record the data. An experiment was carried out total 60 times by wearing LED care emblem in 2 positions (ⓐ necklace and ⓑ bag), and 3 usages of Light (① Constant light, ② No light which is like existing care emblem, and ③ blinking light at one-second intervals). Experimental results show there was a significant difference depending on the type of light. Mostly seat offering was the type of light ① Constant light and it has 8 times (13.4%). The type of light ③ blinking light at one-second intervals has only 2 times (3.4%) seat offering. However, there were no seat offerings at the type of light ② No light. Meanwhile, there were no significant differences in wearing position, time, the number of people in the train and gender. This study suggests that it is necessary to make LED care emblem with constant light in order to induce spontaneous seat offering.
