In this research, we propose a method for the evaluation of emotional behaviors by using a pet-type robot without the subjectivity of a special person. In the proposed method, at first we evaluate a body motion by the robot based on Laban's Theory. Next a basic emotional degree is calculated by the fuzzy reasoning from the evaluation value of the body motion. Moreover, we evaluate the emotion value based on Russell's Circumplex Model by using the above-mentioned basic emotional degree. In order to confirm the efficiency of the proposed method, in this research, the experiment used a pet-type robot as an object for the body motion was performed. The results for the experiment and Kansei evaluation are also shown at the end of this paper.
