            Abstract : 
By the experiment, this study explores the user experience´s key component, the users´ aesthetic reaction (UAR). The results show that: (1) interface´s UAR is made up of beauty of impression (BI), hominine beauty (HB) and beauty of material (BM); (2) BI is the strongest at the three apparent space dimensions, and can be weaken by reducing dimensions; (3) HB and BM are the best at the two apparent space dimensions, and not good enough by neither increasing nor decreasing the apparent space dimensions.
