Resumo(s): | Demographic revolution is manifesting itself in the world through the expansion of old age on an accelerated scale. This reality must be considered by the entire global society, focusing on issues related to inclusion, accessibility and health, among others, in order to provide better quality of life to those reaching the condition of elderly. The main objective of this study is to disseminate and instigate research on the contribution of ergonomics as a social inclusion tool for the development of products designed to bodies in process of transformation. Previous literature review regarding the contribution of ergonomics, showed an extensive ongoing research in several areas and segments, being however neglected the clothing product. In Brazil, more specific studies show some interest in this area although shyly emerging. The contribution of ergonomics to the design of clothing product must employ selected methods and use of appropriate techniques for its development, considering in user’s satisfaction and its inclusion in society (This study has its starting point in a doctoral thesis research concluded in 2017, whose theme was about the suitability of clothing for elderly dependent women. For this purpose, in addition to the anthropometric study, it was relevant to emphasize the aspects of comfort, with a focus on the ergonomic comfort of clothing. This study exposed the need of further developments in this area, as well as by the perception of the lack of research on the contribution of ergonomics, specifically, regarding to user-centered clothing.). |
