A Framework towards Subway Safety Information Design based on Passenger's Needs for Cognition

Abstract: Subway safety information includes subway safety warning information, subway safety warning information and subway emergency response information. Although different countries and industries in the world have set relevant standards for subway safety information design, it remains to be considered whether it is the subway safety information can meet the needs for cognition of passengers and whether it is suitable for the cognitive characteristics of passengers. Through the methods of literature study and case study, this paper sorts out the emergencies in the subway in recent years and analyzes the passengers 'emergency psychology and emergency behavior in the context of the emergency situation, and finally puts forward a subway safety information design framework for passengers' needs for cognition. Put forward the guidance direction for the subway safety information optimization.
