The face pareidolia phenomenon, incorrect perception of something that is not a face as a face, affects human cognition and behavior. Although some face pareidolia studies focus on event-related potentials (ERPs) as the physiological indicator, most of them use stimuli uncontrolled context, spatial frequency, and contrast. The physiological response induced by this stimulus might be influenced by contexts other than face-likeness. The current study estimated the ERP component that affects the face pareidolia phenomenon by measuring EEGs while evaluating face-like abstract figures’ face-likeness. Multiple regression analysis was performed to predict the face-likeness evaluation based on EEG data. As a result, the N170 component at the left posterior temporal area and the N400 component at the right frontal area were related to the pareidolia phenomenon.

: An utterance-output device, such a smart speaker, has been focused on. The device, which talks automatically or by being operated remotely, may support parenting at home. For parenting supports, it is important for children to recognize common ground in conversation with the device. This would contribute to children being interested in the device and interacting actively. Meanwhile, interactions between children, who have various personality, and utterance-output devices have not been fully investigated yet. This study investigated how personality affected children’s cognition of common ground in conversation with the utterance-output device and their behaviors. The results indicated that the less nervous, more emotionally stable, or more adaptable to communication different from that at home children are, the more closely they engage with the device, or spontaneously they clean toys based on receiving proposals from the devices. These would be related to children’s cognition of common ground in conversation through pretending.

: Almost fashion apparels (over 90 %) sold in Japan are made in china. In early times of 21st century (2001 – 2010), Japanese fashion apparel Co. (manufacturing wholesale or manufacturing and retail) investigated to advance into China market. Business men of Japanese fashion apparels thought to be easy to advance there because of low level of Chinese fashion items. However, Japanese fashion apparel Co. which succeeded to advance there is only one (UNIQLO, First Retailing). Income of Chinese people in that time and purchasing power were very low. In contrast, tenant rent of Chinese shopping center was relatively high. Business consultant in that time pointed out that it was the reason to failed to advance into China market. However, we referred to the opinion of a business manager of Japanese OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) company who succeeded to advance into China. He said that appropriate time to succeed in China market was 2002 at the latest. 2005 was too late to succeed in Chine market. We thought that the main reason to failed to advance there was that Japanese fashion business Co. in that time couldn’t make items which were sold enough in Chine market. As a consequence of it, Japanese companies couldn’t pay the fixed cost to maintain their tenants. That is to say, fashion apparels designed by Japanese fashion designers hard to realize cash. We call the ability to realize cash of a fashion apparel as “product power” and the ability to realize that of a shop as “sales capabilities”. Here, we explained the relation between product power and sales capabilities by using differential equations, commonly known as the “Lanchester model”. By using her model, we guessed the relationship between product power and payment of fixed cost. The reason to fail to advance into China market is inferred to inability of Japanese fashion designer.

The purpose of this study was to extract visual design elements related to Kansei value by applying principal component analysis (PCA) to color images. A questionnaire survey on impression evaluations for images of various sports shoes was conducted for Japanese and Americans. The shoe images used in the survey were converted to the CIE Lab color system, and by applying PCA to value based on each axis (i.e., the luminance axis, the red-green axis, and the yellow-blue axis), the components of the shoe design could be visualized by the patterns of brightness and color. As a result of factor analysis applied to the rating data, factors with similar interpretation were extracted, while principal patterns of shoe design related to the impression factor were different between regions. This method using PCA is considered to lead to the realization of design direction that matches the user’s characteristics.
