In this research, we developed a communication learning support system to learn appropriate dialogue methods with people with pragmatic language disorders. People with pragmatic language disorders tend to have problems with interpersonal relationships with typically developing people because they cannot understand the meaning of ambiguous utterances. As a solution to this problem, we propose a communication learning support system for learning the dialogue methods which are easy to be conveyed to people with pragmatic language disorders, targeting typical development. This learning support system uses a humanoid robot that mimics a person with pragmatic language disorders and allows the user to experience the dialogue with such a person. The user can actively learn while participating in such a dialogue with the robot. Experiments using 16 subjects showed the usefulness of the system.
