| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined whether an augmented reality virtual partner facilitates behavioral change in jogging. We found that the experience of jogging while seeing a virtual partner tended to increase motivation in the same way as when running with an actual human. The fact that the same motivational effect can be expected even when the visibility is reduced to a point-light (white balls representing only the movement of major joints) or limb-only avatar (transparent representation of parts other than limbs) is considered an essential condition for avatar design for activities involving outdoor movement that require attention to one's surroundings to ensure safety. This is considered to be an essential condition for avatar design for activities involving outdoor movement that require attention to surroundings for safety. On the other hand, the avatar did not get as close to the partner's cadence (pitch) as in the case of human runners.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
バーチャルな身体性については、先行研究のほとんどが没入型のVR技術を用いて自身のアバターを変化させるものである。それに対し本研究課題は実世界に重畳させるAR技術を用いて他者であるバーチャルパートナーが観察者に与える影響を明らかにした点でこれらと異なっており、より応用を意識した研究成果である。またパンデミック状況下においては、バーチャルに他者と運動することは、飛沫による感染リスクをおさえながらにして、精神衛生に良い影響を与える可能性がある。
