Postural Ergonomic Risk Assesment of Augmented Reality User Interface on Smarthpones in Cosmetic Industry Advertising

Augmented reality (AR) technology is widely used in marketing activities and promotional strategies so that many users or customers use it, including beauty products, which already offer many applications that are used as promotional tools. Augmented reality technology is accompanied by technological developments and the COVID-19 pandemic, especially among female customers in various groups, including teenage girls who use many cosmetic products daily. The use of this technology requires an evaluation regarding its use, where in this evaluation, an evaluation can be used in terms of ergonomics for the user using the ergonomics concept PERA (Postural Ergonomic Risk Assessment). This research aims to evaluate the postural risk regarding the level of use of augmented reality technology for beauty product applications used by female students when using AR applications on smartphones when accessing cosmetics industry advertising. This research was conducted on female teenage respondents among vocational school students who focused on skill competencies, namely the Skin and Hair Beauty Department at one of the private vocational schools in the Cilamaya-Karawang area. The sample for data collection in this study was by taking 30 respondents using a saturated sample. The results of this research indicate that there must be an evaluation regarding the level of ergonomics with the PERA measurement results ranging between 7.4 - 11.8, indicating that the AR user interface in the cosmetic industry advertising is in the high-risk category so that further improvements are needed in the future so as not to pose a risk of musculoskeletal disorders in teenagers. Thus, AR developers in the advertising industry must pay attention to the comfort of the user’s posture in terms of duration, smartphone weight, and grip strength when using AR applications.

Using Promotional Strategies to Increase the Use of Miswak among Teenagers in Saudi Arabia

Miswak is a chewing stick that has been used in Muslim communities across the world for over 1,500 years as an oral hygiene aid. There is evidence to support its clinical effectiveness in plaque management when used alone or in conjunction with a conventional toothbrush. However, evidence of its deleterious effects on periodontal health is equivocal. To study culturally acceptable strategies for promoting oral health practices and preventing illness among adolescents in Saudi Arabia, advertisements were assessed for their ability to engage and open up new communication channels for oral health messages. The aim is to encourage adolescents to adopt the habit of using miswak to improve their oral hygiene, wherever they may be. The data for this study was collected from 116 teenage respondents from Saudi Arabia. The mean age of the study participants was 16.66 ± 0.943 years, with a median age of 17 and a range from 12 to 17. The study included 66 males (56.9%) and 50 females (43.1%). Furthermore, the overall mean assessments of both advertisements were negative due to several problems with the design and use of pictures in the ads. The analysis of this study show that a more standardised method of advertisement is required to properly gain the attention of this generation of adolescents in Saudi Arabia. In addition, the individuals who took part in the research believed that social media is the most suitable venue for conveying messages promoting miswak. To be able to communicate effectively about oral health messaging, one must first have a solid understanding of the advertising messages that are relevant to oral health, as well as the influence of religion. Another prerequisite for the creation of effective advertising is knowledge of media platforms and the impacts that these platforms have on the behaviour of teenagers. Successful communication could make youths in Saudi Arabia likelier to use miswak.

The revitalization of archaic vocabularies of PML should be implemented through formal efforts by integrating the language material in the formal learning process through the Local Content Curriculum as well as by writing the PML Dictionary which should be shared through social media such as Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp. Revitalization through non-formal channels should be carried out through communication training, publishing folklore by incorporating PML archaic vocabularies, and reactivating PML cultural activities.
