| 概要 | An agent system was developed to serve as a conversation partner for individuals with dementia. The computer screens showed an animated face which resembled “a five-year-old grandchild.” We prepared 180 reminiscent questions. The system could automatically detect the end of an individual’s reply to a question and began asking the next question. Eight subjects with mild Alzheimer disease participated in this evaluation experiment. They replied to the agent (agent condition) and a human partner (human condition), each of whom asked the same 15 questions. To estimate the utterance length, we calculated the syllable number in the subjects’ replies for the two abovementioned conditions. All the subjects uttered 5494 (74%) syllables in the agent condition compared with 7406 (100%) syllables in the human condition. Although the number of syllables was fewer in the agent condition, this system was considered to be useful under quiet circumstances. |
