The Comforting word

By Gloria Taylor 28 May, 2023 1 mins read

Comforting is used to soothe or lift spirits. It is derived in Old French comforter. Late Latin confortare, a word containing the same root, derives the word. The Vulgate has this assimilation of the Latin comfortare. The Vulgate is where comforting was first translated into English.

Comforting

A comforting word is one that cheers up or soothes trouble. It is derived from the Old French comforter, and the Latin comfortis, both of which mean to help. The mid-13c has the meaning "to comfort". Comfort food became popular during the latter half of the 19th century.

Comforting gestures

Self-comforting gestures are part of the human psyche. It is meant to help us feel calm when we are stressed. Many people don't realize that touching their bodies can have many meanings. These gestures are controlled primarily by the unconscious mind, so it is best to avoid them whenever possible.

This research proposes a new model to measure comfort in human/computer interaction (HCI). The model is based upon mechanical energy expenditure and mechanical effectiveness and simulates static gestures ME and ME. These values can be normalized and different decision weights used to generate a comfort evaluation model. This model can then be validated through experiments. The model should be capable of evaluating comfort of gestures, in the contexts of user preferences, perceived effects and ergonomic risks.
