メンタルモデルに基づく遠隔対話行動の説明

遠隔対話環境において対話者が活用する知識の集合としてメンタルモデルを表現 する。知識は対話空間/現実空間における行為、それらの間の関係によって表現 されるが、対話空間の理解のしかたに応じて活性化される知識の部分が異なるこ とを反映して複数のメンタルモデルが存在する。ビデオ対話に利用されるメンタ ルモデルを明らかにし、物理的に同一の対話環境であっても異なったメンタルモ デルを利用した対話が行われることを示す。

How do people use remote communication systems?
A cognitive account based on users' mental models

This paper proposes a cognitive model that describes how users of remote-communication systems adapt their knowledge used for face-to-face communication in real space to that useful in the virtual space that remote-communication systems provide. The model represents users' knowledge hierarchically and consists of Scripts, Goals, and Actions. It assumes that, when conducting virtual communication, the users retrieve an appropriate Script, which is then expanded by the other Scripts and Goals, terminating with Actions that the users intend to carry out in virtual space. The users then map the Actions in virtual space onto those in real space using their experience and knowledge about remote systems in general. We argue that neither of the Script-Goal-Action knowledge nor the set of mappings are initially optimal to fully utilize the system's functionality, but that they are learned while using the system. We report some evidence that supports our claim using the "shake-hand" example in the HyperMirror remote-communication system. We conclude by suggesting that the model is useful not only for evaluating existing remote-communication systems but also for designing future systems in terms of ease of use from the viewpoint of knowledge necessary to use the system's full functionality.
