| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Communication skills are essential in our everyday lives. Quantifying communication and providing feedback advice in an automated manner would significantly improve the skills. Therefore, we aim to propose a method to monitor communication that employs life-logging technology to evaluate parameters related to communication skills. For onsite communication, we measured frequency of smiles as a metric for smooth communication. In addition, smiling can improve happiness even if a smile is mimicked. We provided feedback results to users in a gamified form and investigated the effects of feedback on communication. For online communication, we proposed “T-echo”, a new trial system for intergenerational social mentoring communication. T-echo is based on the two concepts: “growing gamifictaion” and “calendar-based interface.” From the field study, we confirmed that growing gamification could be a good mediator between the elderly and the young.
