Abstract
“Social adaptation" is conventionally used as a medical term. It is used to mean “a person changes in order to adapt to society." We wondered if it would be possible to design a society that adapts to people, rather than changing in order for people to adapt to society. In other words, when the concept of social adaptation is applied to design, we believe that a method of “changing the side of society and its mechanisms to suit people" is necessary. This is an important concept that will lead to the realization of a diverse society in which people can easily live as they are without the need to change their individuality and characteristics. We considered this concept to be important in communicating the field of party research to people, including non-participants. Therefore, we focused on how visualization as a method for communicating party research affects people’s cognitive processes up to the level of empathy. In this study, we use visualization as a means of enabling people to empathize and share the contents of the party research we have conducted to date, including physical experiences, with non-participants, taking the case studies as examples. The purpose of this study is to analyze the mental models of the visualized matters and to clarify the cognitive process in order to devise a visualization method for empathy.
