Abstract
This article describes the results of a study that reveals previously hidden facts from a large amount of behavioral data currently being collected in the educational field (educational big data) by individually excluding those factors that affect human behavior on the basis of cognitive psychological findings. Furthermore, actual cases are presented to show that the information revealed in this study can be a driving force for changing the learning behavior of individual children, and consequently solve various educational problems. In order to extract meaningful information from the big data collected from human behavior, a deep understanding of human behavior is essential. Conversely, with a deep understanding of humans, big data that are a simple mass of information could become an abundant source of information.
