Abstract

A storage medium storing a discussion support program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process includes collecting opinion data obtained from each information terminal and a group characteristic corresponding to the opinion data collected in each group including a plurality of information terminals set in advance, and calculating a point of a participant related to the information terminal based on representative opinion data chosen from the opinion data collected in each group and the group characteristic corresponding to the group to which the information terminal having transmitted the representative opinion data belongs.

Claims

1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a discussion support program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

collecting opinion data obtained from each information terminal and a group characteristic corresponding to the opinion data collected in each group including a plurality of information terminals set in advance; and

calculating a point of a participant related to the information terminal based on representative opinion data chosen from the opinion data collected in each group and the group characteristic corresponding to the group to which the information terminal having transmitted the representative opinion data belongs.

2. The storage medium storing the discussion support program according to claim 1, wherein the calculating the point includes changing an amount of points to be added based on a relation between an opinion type of a participant of a representative opinion and an opinion type of another participant in the group.

3. The storage medium storing the discussion support program according to claim 1, wherein the point is adjusted from the calculated point based on an opinion characteristic of each of the groups or opinion characteristics of all the groups.

4. The storage medium storing the discussion support program according to claim 1, wherein a point increase rate of the another participant in the group is acquired, and a point is further added to the calculated point based on the acquired point increase rate.

5. The storage medium storing the discussion support program according to claim 1, wherein transition of the calculated point of each participant is illustrated and displayed on a screen of a given information terminal.

6. The storage medium storing the discussion support program according to claim 1, wherein a participant who transmits group representative opinion data is decided in the group based on the transition of the point of each participant.

7. A discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process, the process comprising:

collecting opinion data obtained from each information terminal and a group characteristic corresponding to the opinion data collected in each group including a plurality of information terminals set in advance; and

calculating a point of a participant related to the information terminal based on representative opinion data chosen from the opinion data collected in each group and the group characteristic corresponding to the group to which the information terminal having transmitted the representative opinion data belongs.

8. The discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process according to claim 7, wherein the calculating the point includes changing an amount of points to be added based on a relation between an opinion type of a participant of a representative opinion and an opinion type of another participant in the group.

9. The discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process according to claim 7, wherein the point is adjusted from the calculated point based on an opinion characteristic of each of the groups or opinion characteristics of all the groups.

10. The discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process according to claim 7, wherein a point increase rate of the another participant in the group is acquired, and a point is further added to the calculated point based on the acquired point increase rate.

11. The discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process according to claim 7, wherein transition of the calculated point of each participant is illustrated and displayed on a screen of a given information terminal.

12. The discussion support method of causing an information processing apparatus to execute a process according to claim 7, wherein a participant who transmits group representative opinion data is decided in the group based on the transition of the point of each participant.

13. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an opinion collecting unit that collects opinion data obtained from each information terminal and a group characteristic corresponding to the opinion data collected in each group including a plurality of information terminals set in advance; and

a point calculating unit that calculates a point of a participant related to the information terminal based on representative opinion data chosen from the opinion data collected in each group and the group characteristic corresponding to the group to which the information terminal having transmitted the representative opinion data belongs.
