Abstract:
Religion is able to reflect people's spiritual beliefs and has the purpose of preserving and promoting cultures. Contemporary religions have evolved from sacredness to science, and from science to consumption. The public seeks solace and satisfaction from the consumption of products, which is an advantage of religious cultures. Therefore, applying the concept of pleasure design to religious products can enhance the quality of religious beliefs and improve the connotations of religious culture. This study aims to establish a measurement model for the pleasure designs of religious products and provide a reference for application in related industries. The results show that 1. the pleasure design effect scale developed in this study is practical; 2. the pleasure design of religious products should place more emphasis on exquisite paintings and unique shapes; 3. the characteristics of popular religious products include having a beautiful graphic design, a great degree of style, a highly contextualized image, design variety, and cultural significance
