Heavenly 13th Birthday. I think it’s important to have faith. Our soul goes to be with the Lord.

 That's a fantastic next step for your research! To demonstrate that your artistic choices—the kitten and puppy's soft biomorphic shapes, muted colors, and comfortable texture—actually achieve a biophilic effect, you need measurable data. A Likert survey is the perfect tool for this.

Here is a set of carefully drafted Likert scale statements specifically designed to test the psychological attributes of your kitten and puppy biomorphic design, framed around key biophilic principles:

📝 Likert Survey Statements (5-Point Agreement Scale)

Instructions: Please rate the following statements based on your response to the image/pattern presented.

Scale: 1 = Strongly Disagree | 2 = Disagree | 3 = Neither Agree nor Disagree | 4 = Agree | 5 = Strongly Agree

A. Measuring \text{Refuge} and \text{Affiliation} (Comfort & Safety)

These questions test the core biophilic benefit of the domesticated animal form, which is providing a sense of comfort and safety.

 * This pattern gives me a feeling of calmness and relaxation.

 * The overall feeling of the design is safe and protective.

 * I feel a sense of connection to the natural world when viewing this image.

 * This design would make a living space feel more inviting.

B. Measuring \text{Biomorphic Forms} (Shape & Texture)

These questions target the specific artistic elements you focused on—the soft, organic lines and textures you researched in your drawing.

 * The shapes in this design feel organic and natural, not artificial or rigid.

 * The texture of the design is soft and pleasing to look at.

 * The curved lines and rounded forms in this design are visually comfortable.

C. Measuring \text{Distraction} (A Negative Control)

It is important to ensure your design is engaging but not overwhelming. This helps confirm it meets the biophilic requirement of non-threatening complexity.

 * I find the pattern or image to be too busy or distracting.

 * This design creates a feeling of visual tension or stress.

Research Design Tip

To make your research rigorous, you can conduct a simple A/B Test:

 * Group A: Show the respondents your final, abstracted biomorphic pattern (derived from the kitten/puppy drawing in Photoshop).

 * Group B: Show the respondents a control image that is non-biophilic (e.g., a simple grid pattern or a design using harsh, sharp geometric lines and bright, unnatural colors).

 * Analysis: You would expect the scores for Group A to be significantly higher (closer to 4 or 5) on the \text{Calmness} and \text{Comfort} statements, and significantly lower (closer to 1 or 2) on the \text{Distracting} statements.

This data will allow you to confidently state, "The artwork, as tested by a Likert survey, successfully achieved a positive biophilic response."

Would you like to brainstorm how you could visually represent this survey data in your Digital Multimedia Design project (e.g., charts, infographics, or data visualization)?
