| Research Abstract |
The project consisted of four research divisions ; (1)exploration of evolutionary game theories, focusing upon processes of collaboratory group formation, (2)field work research on children's social interactions (group formation, participation to, or expulsion from a group, leadership formation, etc.) in kindergartens and nursery schools, (3)educational practices in child cares to foster the social skills to interactions and cooperations in plays, and (4)construction of multi-agent simulation models of children's group formation using based upon (1)〜(3). These divisions met regulary, and exchanged their research results. The results indicated that evolutionary game theories and multi-agent simulation studies based upon evolutionary games would provide new perspectives on early childhood education paractices, especially on children's social negotiation and interaction with each other in group plays.
