N2 - With the growing population of the elderly people, designers of the human-machine interface must consider their psychophysiological characteristics. Three groups of subjects with a mean age of 21.0, 38.5 and 61.5 years, participated in the experiments. First they were examined by the perimeter. Then their near vision were measured by the Landolt ring test. Finally a Chinese character choosing task was done. The senile group had a marked decrease of light sensitivity and also a decline of near vision. For the 9-point font, there was no significant difference among three groups. However, for the 6-point font, the senile group reacted slowly. In the future, for the sake of the aged people, it would be of great importance to work out the critical and optimal font sizes under different light conditions. To obtain this goal, more experiments should be done and more subjects should be involved.
