| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Changes in feelings, facial expressions, and psychosomatic states caused by communication behaviors of animals directed at people were investigated. The results indicated that impressions regarding appearance of dogs differed significantly, depending on the dog’s coat and size. Moreover, impressions regarding faces of dogs was affected by the direction of its gaze, shape of its ears, and opened or closed mouth. Moreover, these impressions were related to likes and dislikes of dogs, as well as the experience of keeping dogs. Furthermore, contact with pet robots resulted in subjective feelings and physiological responses, including saliva amylase, heart rate, and blood pressure. In addition, the effects of contact with pet robots changed, depending on likes and dislikes for animals, the time of contact, the movement of pet robots, and participants’ behaviors corresponding to such movement.
