As research over the last several decades has shown that non-verbal actions such as face and head movement play a crucial role in human interaction, resources are also likely to an important human-robot interaction. In developing robotic system employs embodied movement, we cannot simply program robot move at random but rather need consider ways these may be timed specific points talk. This paper discusses our work museum guide moves its interactionally significant during explanation of...

We are currently working on a museum guide robot with an emphasis "friendly" human-robot interaction displayed through nonverbal behaviors. In this paper, we focus head gestures during explanations of exhibits. The outline our research is as follows. first examined human experimental, sociological approach. From research, have discovered how guides coordinate their movement along talk when explaining Second, developed system based these findings. Third, evaluated interaction, again using...

Communication is an ongoing challenge for clinicians working with people facing life-threatening illnesses and end of life. Family conferences offer patient-focused, family-oriented care that brings together patients, family members, health providers.The aim this study was to develop a research-based model help physicians other providers conduct such effectively improve communication patients families.We prospectively studied illness in two inpatient medical centers. We videotape audiotape...

This study explicates the interaction between medical professionals and patients' family members during Japanese emergency care in cases where patient's life is at risk. Nineteen video recordings of conversations doctors an room obtained 2006 2012 within a metropolitan area are analyzed. The analysis reveals four main interactional resources employed by staff their verbal decision-making process: (a) storytelling as forecasting, (b) online commentary bedside examination, (c) paradoxical...

This article examines storytelling (narratives) in interaction at a Japanese American museum. The analysis draws upon audiovisual recordings of tours led by older, male docents. It ways docents tell stories — primarily vicarious experience educating visitors on Japanese-American history, and they use range verbal non-verbal communicative practices that invite visitors’ engagement the telling as social sense-making activity. We categorize two types practices: elicited non-elicited. Elicited...

Although storytelling is a central practice in everyday interaction, it not an easy task for young children, because requires extended turns-at-talk. To tell story successfully, child considerable support from the recipient. In this article, we examine how facilitated Japanese caregiver–child interactions, focusing on strategies employed by caregivers to elicit 2- 3-year-old children during picture book reading activities. Our analysis indicates that employ various multimodal encouraging...

We are currently developing a museum guide robot with an emphasis on nonverbal behavior in order to foster "friendly" human-robot interaction. In this paper, we discuss interdisciplinary approach development. first examined head gestures of human guides through sociological, conversational analytic approach, and discovered how coordinate their movements along talk when explaining exhibits. Second, developed system based these findings. Third, evaluated interaction experimental, sociological...

In the Shinjuku Station West Exit Medical Relief Training, a disaster medical (triage) training that includes ordinary citizens as well professionals has been conducted on continual basis. However, updating and improving contents maintaining participants’ interest levels were challenged because there no baseline evaluations post-training accomplishments. The purpose of this study is to develop model which facilitate updates in sustainable manner increase number participants by raising...

This study focuses on instructional talk during prenatal visits in Japan. In order to prepare an upcoming delivery, a midwife often engages about the patient’s self-care at home. Yet, giving instruction is interactionally challenging task, even medical setting. For example, recipient may not accept advice easily, since this reveal recipient’s lack of knowledge and incompetence. By using conversation analysis, I find some interactional steps through which establishes relevance instruction....

Abstract Background Communication skills required for doctors do not consist of simple uses particular linguistic forms but include that are sensitive to the interactional context. In consultations where have pre‐existing information about their patients, this can complicate context problem solicitation. We investigated how tailor opening questions a in which they get from medical questionnaire (MQ) filled out by patients. Methods The data study were 87 video recordings first visits...

救急医療における意思決定過程は, 代理としての家族が意思決定に参加し, 刻々と変わる状況下でなにかを決めなければならない. そこで医師と家族がよりどころとするのは, 会話という手段にほかならない. 本稿では, 患者家族が救急初期診療中に医師から説明を受ける場面を, 会話分析によって分析し, その相互行為上の仕組み, いわばインフォームド・コンセントが裏づけられていくプロセスを明らかにする. それにより医師-患者関係におけるインフォームド・コンセントの的確な運用に関する議論に寄与することを目指す.分析の結果, おもに3つの相互行為的な仕組みが主軸となり意思決定過程が組み立てられていた. (1)まず医師の状況説明が物語りとして組み立てられることで, 徐々に悪いニュースが明らかとなり, 家族が患者の死を予測できる構造になっていた. (2)また医師は, 視覚や触覚で得られる情報を参照することで不確実な状態を, 刻々と確実なものに変化させていた. (3)さらに状況説明とは逆接的な提案が繰り返された後, 最終的な局面では, 医師の提案が, 家族の反応にきわめて敏感に組み立てられていた....

Using 20 video recordings of Emergency Room treatment and over 5 years fieldwork data, this study elucidates how interactional processes serve as resources for generating a cultural script death in Japan called ‘Mitori’. A sudden at hospital, which patient is removed from their social network, often considered the opposite ‘good home death’. This shows hospital deaths are strongly interrelated with family participation. After showing point where medical professionals decide to terminate...

Emergency medical care involves a high level of urgency and requires team approach. Thus, the need for simulation-based education is high. Evaluation, however, difficult to perform. Therefore, we carried out study analyze trajectories personnel during treatment contribute education. We installed four stereo cameras on ceiling around one bed in an emergency room (ER). extracted recorded their conversations ambient sounds treatment. In this paper, investigate meaning ER, analyzed relationship...
