It is important to facilitate the communication in workshop so that the participants may be convinced with the result of workshop. In this study, we analyzed the relation between communication apprehension and conviction of participants. As a result, communication apprehension is not only related to the degree of conviction with result but also it is related to the degree of conviction with time allocation. It is also said that facilitators should proceed the discussion efficiently since the participants with low communication apprehension, who would have much conversation, tend to be unconvinced with time allocation. Moreover, the experts should pay attentions to the atrophy of participants because of high communication apprehension and low conviction in workshops facilitated by experts.
