Perspective Evaluation for The Malaysia Northern Region Community College Convocation Mace Design

Abstract

As a ceremonial dignity and solemnity, a mace required evaluation of it’s design. Design ideas from a few members may not accommodating the need for a good mace design. Hence, this paper aims to this study the relationships of potential user’s mace design perspectives evaluation covering intangible, behavioural, and intangible levels – input parameters. The respondents are the academic staff in Manufacturing Technology Unit in Malaysia Community College. Score by these perspectives are accumulated to a value known as Perspective Score – output parameter. Based on the 77% response rate, the finding suggests that all responded data is statistically accepted – normality, validity, and reliability. In addition, to Regression Analysis and Pearson Correlation are used to analyse hypothesis relation and effect tests. The finding concludes the mace tangible level is very good (44%), following the intangible level (34%), and behavioural level (22%). The external appearance feature in tangible level suggests the best response and the lowest the background element applied to the mace. These three hypotheses are showing positive relation and positive effect for the studied parameters. By this finding, it is proposed to further this study once the finalised design fabrication is completed.
