Research on school-enterprise collaborative lighting innovation design based on social psychology and Kansei engineering: Taking the collaboration between central academy of fine arts and Librite as an example

As the importance of school-enterprise collaboration in design innovation becomes increasingly prominent, how to enhance collaborative effectiveness through interdisciplinary theoretical integration has emerged as a critical issue requiring urgent resolution. This study takes the nine-year collaboration between the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) and Libit Lighting as the research subject, employing a theoretical framework that combines social psychology and Kansei engineering to systematically analyze the underlying mechanisms and influencing factors of innovative lighting design in school-enterprise collaboration. The research adopts a mixed methods approach, conducting comprehensive investigations of 50 core participants and 1,200 users through a combination of in-depth interviews, questionnaire surveys, case analyses, and experimental validation. The results demonstrate that: social psychological theories exhibit significant explanatory power in design innovation (75.8%), with social cognitive theory, social identity theory, and group dynamics theory providing effective analytical frameworks for understanding user behavior and team collaboration; key social psychological factors in school-enterprise collaboration include trust relationships (correlation coefficient 0.812), cultural integration (improvement rate 51.7%), knowledge transfer (success rate 74.8%), and organizational identification (enhancement 70.8%), all of which significantly impact collaborative effectiveness; the integrated application of Kansei engineering and social psychology achieves effective transformation from abstract emotional needs to concrete design parameters (conversion rate 73.8%), establishing a systematic design methodology framework; 15 representative works demonstrate outstanding performance in dimensions of cultural heritage, environmental friendliness, and social responsibility, generating cumulative economic benefits of 86 million yuan with user satisfaction reaching 4.3 points; based on research findings, optimization strategies for school-enterprise collaboration are proposed, including psychological contract establishment, trust building, cultural integration, and incentive mechanism design. This study provides new theoretical perspectives and practical pathways for school-enterprise collaboration model innovation, holding significant theoretical value and practical implications for promoting deep integration of industry, academia, and research.
