A STUDY ON RELATIONS BETWEEN USERS' SITUATIONS BEFORE AND AFTER VISITING, AND SITTING BEHAVIORS IN ART MUSEUMS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF USING ON FOOT

We define the facilities for visitors to use on foot. As one of them, we survey 5 art museums to study the visitors' sitting behaviors. The results are as follows : The users' situations before and after visiting art museums, have effects on sitting behaviors. There is a high correlation coefficient between the rate of the number of users' not sitting, and the average of times of users' sitting. Sitting behaviors are influenced by the length of the users' stay and the length of the users' not sitting before arriving.
