Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is an information processing device that supports formation of agreement by multiple participants. The device includes a memory stores a causal loop diagram database where participant attributes and corresponding causal loop diagrams are accumulated. These causal loop diagrams visualize causal relations between evaluation indicators and causal relation strength. The device also includes a processor that classifies the participants into multiple classes based on input information relating to attributes of the participants and generates class attributes of the classes. The processor refers to the causal loop diagram database based on the class attributes of the classes and creates a class causal loop diagram. The processor extracts a difference regarding the causal relations and the causal relation strength between the class causal loop diagrams and generates difference information. The processor identifies an issue for discussion to form the agreement, based on the difference information, and presents the issue to the participants.
