Original Abstract Submitted

A processing device acquires a moving image that includes frames in each of which a first image for display to a right eye of a user, and a second image for display to a left eye of the user. The processing device determines a likelihood of the user experiencing a particular symptom due to viewing the moving image, on a basis of information of contents of the moving image, information of the user, and characteristics of the moving image.
