Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study focused on the origin of the human nature, especially theses three traits: language, theory of mind, and altruistic behavior. We used multifaceted constructive methods based on simulation, analysis and experiments with human subjects, and successfully proposed and demonstrated a hypothesis that these traits were coevolved affecting each other. We also explored the possibility for utilizing the results to encourage altruistic behavior in the real world.
