Objective: The aim of this study is to find the optimal hardness of seat cushion for office chairs. Background: The comfort or discomfort and subjective satisfaction for office chairs mainly are determined by the cushion of seat pan. However, the hardness of cushion has been empirically determined in chair companies. Method: In this study, we evaluated eight seat cushions which varied in materials(2 levels) and varied in hardness(4 levels). The body pressure distribution was measured during seven subjects were sitting on the eight different cushions. After then, they evaluated their preference for the cushions by using tactile senses of buttocks and fingers. Results: As expected, the harder the cushions were, the higher the average pressure on cushions was. Also the subjective discomfort was lowered proportionally to the lowering of the average body pressure. Conclusion: To lower the discomfort level of cushion of office chairs, it is recommended to lower the current hardness of cushions. Also it was showed that more elastic sponges were preferred than the current material. Application: The result of this study can be applied to the determination of optimal hardness of sponges used in seat cushions.
