Abstract
When you are approached at a fund-raising event or tissue distribution, you may feel anxious, nervous, stressed, or otherwise emotionally burdened. In addition, there is the mental burden of worrying about the content of the speech of the person who calls out to them and the eyes of the people around them. This phenomenon is defined by the authors as the "physical social anxiety accumulation effect. " In this study, we propose a method to reduce the physical social anxiety accumulation effect of the person being approached by using an anthropomorphic agent of digital signage as the one who calls out to the person. In this paper, we report the results of subjective and objective analysis of the effects of watching a video of a human or anthropomorphic agent handing out tissues on the person being approached.
