| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to create a real time monitoring system for synchronization of the brain activity of the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) while social communicative situations using newly developed ultra-small near infra-red spectroscopy. We measured synchronization of the DMPFC from a pair of subjects during discussion by a group of subjects and walking with group of subjects while listening to a rhythm. We found degree of synchronization was related to the quality of social interaction among subjects. The results indicate that our system enable us to determine evaluation of quality of communication and/or sympathy, at least, between a pair of subjects.
