The authors have been conducting research on value-creating communication. It is a process where people embody and clarify their own values and form new values through communication. The authors have observed and modeled consensus building process that has few choice as an example of value-creating communication. Therefore, in this study, we observed and modeled the consensus building process in case of multiple-choices and compared the process based on quantity of choices. In multiple-choices, there was a group that they created the conception through communication and a group that they reach the consensus in terms of a viewpoint. It is considered that the conception is important if the appearance of viewpoints through communication is few or the degree of importance between viewpoints is not clear. However, as a result of comparison the process, it was suggested that the consensus building process can be caught the same structure regardless of the number of choices.
