With respect to character, this dissertation studied the correlation with character as per facial type judged in the physiognomical aspect in the scope of face that affects the first image of physiognomy. The modern study also analyzes functional relation of character exposed in the shape of face so as to search the utilization method.
In such study, character is peculiar psychological system that represents the individual identity such as quality or personality. Thus, it is assessed as important factor of function for mutual interest and assessment, the adaptability and response of social environment in the individual's future fortune.
This study deeply analyzed the existing study to analyze which logic was applied and combined in the process where the theoretic background and facial type in which the names and taxonomy for facial type were not definitely established are subdivided in diverse varied models.
The main contents of study are the establishment of hypothesis to classify facial type. Namely, it is analyzed in establishing backgrounds of 8 types, establishment of names and models in 8 types, establishment of standard to classify facial type and Sangbeop type(相法論) to grasp the character of design and type for facial drawing in 8 types. The background of establishment of hypothesis is based on the combination, that is, the contents of meaning and common property inherent in the theory of 5 primary substances(五行論)․Sasangchejil(四象體質論)․Samhyeongjil(三形質論)․Sipjamyeon(十字面法)․Figure(圖形), etc. The peculiar implication of facial type and character was verified on the basis of them by using statistical method through questionnaire, the contents of which are as follows.
First, classifying facial type and grasping character in the existing study is interpreted in separate logic as each researcher uses different names for types in the same meaning. Further, classification standard and features of character are quite similar or improper contents are repetitiously cited due to wrong information and voluntary interpretation. This phenomenon seems to be caused by the extremely restricted logic on facial type and character in the theory presented in physiognomy.
Second, the ground of feasibility that the meaning of theory of 5 primary substances(五行論), Sasangchejil(四象體質論)․Samhyeongjil(三形質論)․Sipjamyeon(十字面法)․Figure(圖形) can be integrated to be established as the hypothesis of theoretic background in this study is that the contents included in each type are grasped to be mutually connected. Namely, the classification of face shape is established as the departure from the form of pictorial composition factors. The 1st taxonomy is to assign and classify each form in the similar model of triangle of acute angle(△▽), square of right angle (□) and circle of obtuse angle(◯). For instance, muscular and skeletal quality is for 3 shapes in square; field letter shape, eye letter shape, same letter shape and usable letter shape are for Sipjamyeon(十字面法); square and rectangular shape are for figure; Taeeum type(太陰人) and Soyang type(少陽人) are in Sasangchejil(四象體質). Among the 8 types established in this study, square․slim and long form․rectangular form․large sitting form are classified into the relevant type. The question items are established by analyzing pictorial picture and common character that symbolizes each type.
Third, questionnaire was performed in self-administered questionnaire survey method on the basis of them. The result was converted by Interval Scaling Method(1 point-5 points) to be verified in T inspection and ANOVA analysis. As a result of T analysis, 7 facial types and character save inverse triangle in 8 types showed statistical significance in reliability level of 95%.
In ANOVA analysis, 7 types save round form in 8 types showed statistical significance in reliability level of 95%. Thus, inverse triangle appeared with different facial type and character in T analysis, which is judged to be due to the inverse triangle which is similar to egg in shape. In ANOVA analysis, round shape (35.6%) that occupied the largest portion in the sample showed no difference in the average with other group, which means that round shape can be also classified into large sitting form, square form and rectangular form. In this study, the character judgment of physiognomy was corroborated in statistical method and the statistical significance between physiognomical type and character were drawn, which implies that it can function as positive factor of basic hypothesis in the study of diverse areas related to physiognomy.
