The work aims to propose a method of designing stress-relieving toys for adolescents based on AHP- TOPSIS hybrid model, in order to reduce the negative emotions of adolescents in daily life. Firstly, according to the needs of adolescents for stress-relieving toys, the demand factors of stress-relieving toys were analyzed based on emotional design theory, and an AHP model was constructed to determine 14 secondary indicators in the sub-criteria level from three aspects of instinct level, behavior level, and reflection level and the comprehensive weights of each design factor were calculated. Secondly, based on the high weights of the design factors, three stress-relieving toy schemes for adolescents were designed. Finally, the TOPSIS was used to score the three stress-relieving toy schemes, the initial evaluation matrix was weighted and standardized to calculate the positive and negative ideal solutions and the relative closeness of the evaluation objects, and then the optimal scheme was selected. The evaluation model constructed by combining the AHP and TOPSIS helps to exclude the influence of subjectivity and analyze the design thinking process qualitatively and quantitatively from multiple perspectives such as system and hierarchy, which makes the design solutions in decision-making more scientific and reasonable. The analyzed product evaluation system, proposed design strategies and solution preference methods can provide clear and objective references for the design of stress-relieving toys for adolescents.
