Abstract

The development of network communications has been fueled by the utilization of network services. Opinion exchanges by the general public are frequently realized in such network services as electronic bulletin board systems (BBS), social network services (SNS), blogs, and so on. However, grasping the discussion flow is time-consuming, because there are too many logs of previously written comments. Therefore, a system is required that shows the discussion state and its history.

In this paper, an opinion exchange support system is proposed that visualizes input history. Each opinion is input by moving images on the interface, and moving histories are replayed as animation. In this study, a target discussion is imagined as a role-sharing problem. The experimental results showed that the system effectively realized flourishing discussion and discussion convergence.
