In a semantic differential survey with 75 adjective pairs, 40 undergraduate respondents evaluated their impressions towards 16 objects; Four human beings (mother, father, a friend, and a baby), a companion animal, two dolls, three robots (two types of animal robot and a humanoid robot), four cartoon characters, and two movie characters. The results of factor analysis indicated that the basic dimensions in the perception of these objects are familiarity, social evaluation, and physical-mental strength. These three dimensions are similar to those identified in previous studies concerning interpersonal cognitive structure. Moreover, cluster analysis extracted three main grouping within the objects (a grouping of adult humans and cartoon characters, a grouping of robots, dolls, and movie characters, and a grouping of baby and companion animal). These results were confirmed in additional analyses with a subset of fifteen of the 75 adjective pairs. The findings from this study indicate that the same cognitive dimensions used for humans are also employed for animals, robots, and other inanimate objects., 国立情報学研究所で電子化したコンテンツを使用している。}, pages = {165--174}, title = {人間と物体との狭間のモノに対する認知構造 : 基本次元の抽出}, volume = {50}, year = {2003} }
