Abstract
"Beauty", "attractiveness", and "likeability" are used as the evaluation items of the face. However, these evaluation items have not been investigated well about whether those are used as having the different or the same meaning. In this paper, 19 participants evaluated the 3 items about the 12 famous person's imaged faces. Analysis using the mean of the rating showed that there was no difference between beauty and attractiveness. On the other hand, the difference among the 3 items was investigated about each participant. As the result, the rate of concordance was 40% even in the case of the maximum rating. It was revealed that three items had used as different meanings. In addition, the correlation between attractiveness and likeability was higher than that of the others.
