Abstract

Even when people participate in the same meeting and reach a consensus, their interpretations of its content might be quite different due to different cultural backgrounds, roles, values, and so on. This could be problematic later when people realize that discrepancies exist between their recognized roles and others' expectations; they might have different understandings and/or priorities. It would be quite beneficial if we could notice such differences soon after meetings. In this paper, we propose a method that enables us to detect such discrepancies among attendees.
