| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research was to examine the formation process of shared representation taking advantage of the feature of Network RPG. In the experiment study, we examined the effect of the initial distribution of information and its shared process on the performance of group problem solving. Although the cognition of a correct answer was promoted as sharing information in conversation, shared information did not improved performance. Moreover, there is a difference in the group process of two-person conditions and three-person conditions. The three-person team members tend to gather to the same place. The analysis of chat log revealed the use of symbols tends to synchronize within a group. Through these experiments, we found that not only sharing of information but a shared place is required for socially shared cognition. It suggests the process of shared representation needs both visual and conversational interactions.
We also conducted applied survey using the commercial based Network RPF. Even if the participants had rather low social skill, they could show pretty well social skill in the Network RPG, and their self-evaluations also approved through the Network RPG. This research suggested that the Network RPG could be a training tool for the social skill.
