(There are five “thumbs-up” icons represented by solid lines.)

  The evaluator B determines whether the item displayed in the first row for the evaluation target person A with respect to the big card E depends on the number of times the user taps or clicks the “introverted” or “extroverted” button. In the terminal device 30 of the evaluator B, the number of symbols (for example, ●) displayed as “introverted” or “extroverted” can be increased or decreased. Similarly, the evaluator B can also increase or decrease the number of symbols (for example, ●) to be displayed as “other-centered” or “self-centered” for the items displayed in the second row. The same applies to the items displayed in the third to fifth rows.

  In one embodiment, the evaluator B responds to all of the big cards A to E, and then taps or clicks a button (not shown), for example, “send evaluation” to use the first big card. The result regarding the evaluation of the stage can be transmitted to the server device 10.

  FIG. 9A is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a small card A indicating a specific question regarding a sense of responsibility and reliability displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 9B is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the small card B indicating a specific question regarding the potential growth potential displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 9C is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a small card C indicating a specific question regarding health and self-management displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 9D is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a small card D indicating a specific question regarding the interpersonal relationship displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 9E is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a small card E indicating a specific question regarding the tendency displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1.

  The manner in which the evaluator B answers the small cards A to D is the same as the manner in which the evaluator B answers the big cards A to D described above. It should be noted that the questions displayed on the small cards A to D are more specific than the questions displayed on the big cards A to D, respectively.

  As an example, the small card E illustrated in the upper part of FIG. 9E is more specifically an item (“introverted” or “extroverted”) displayed in the first row of the big card E illustrated in FIG. 8E. It is a card for evaluation. As an example, the small card E illustrated in the lower part of FIG. 9E further includes an item (“other-centric” or “self-centric”) displayed in the second row of the big card E illustrated in FIG. 8E. This is a card for specific evaluation. Although not provided as a drawing for simplicity, the items displayed in the third to fifth rows of the big card E illustrated in FIG. Regarding “open”, “ideal” or “real”, a card for more specifically evaluating each of these items can be transmitted to the evaluator B as a small card E. The manner in which the evaluator B answers such a small card E is the same as the manner in which the evaluator B answers the above-described big cards A to D.

  In one embodiment, the evaluator B responds to all of the small cards A to E, and then taps or clicks a button (not shown), for example, “send evaluation” to use the second card using the small card. The result regarding the evaluation of the stage can be transmitted to the server device 10.

  Returning to FIG. 6, in ST56, the server device 10 receives, from the terminal device 30 of the evaluator B, information indicating the result of the evaluation on the evaluation target person A. The information indicating the evaluation result here indicates, for example, information indicating the content of the evaluator B's response to the big cards A to E and / or indicating the content of the evaluator B's response to the small cards A to E. Information can be included. The server device 10 that has received the information indicating the result of the answer from the evaluator B can store the result of the evaluation performed by the evaluator B in association with the evaluation target person A. Here, since the evaluation target person A cannot recognize the subject (here, the evaluator B) that has performed the evaluation for itself through the external evaluation platform, a fair external evaluation can be realized.

4-2. Evaluation performed by an evaluator having a “Layer 2” relationship with the evaluation target After each user has entered a Layer 1 relationship with another user, the user is evaluated via an external evaluation platform. Browsing and confirming a user list indicating users having a layer 1 relationship with the other user (only when the other user is set to make this user list public). be able to. Further, each user can select a user who should request the execution of the evaluation for himself from the users listed in the user list that has been browsed and confirmed in this way.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating an example of an operation performed between the evaluator and the evaluator who shifts to (or shifts to) the layer 2 relationship in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 10, in ST60, the user A (evaluation target A) is held by the user B (who has already established a layer 1 relationship) via the external evaluation platform using the terminal device 30. The user browses the user list, and selects the user C (evaluator C) from the users listed in the user list as the user who should request the execution of the evaluation for the user. The terminal device 30 of the evaluation target person A transmits information indicating that the evaluator C has been selected from the user list of the user B to the server device 10. Here, the user A (evaluation target A) and the user B are the same as the user A (evaluation target A) and the user B (evaluator B) described with reference to FIG. 6 and the like, respectively.

  In ST62, the evaluation target person A requests the evaluator C to execute the evaluation on the evaluation target person A. Specifically, in one embodiment, the server device 10 transmits to the terminal device 30 of the evaluator C an e-mail, a short message, or the like that the evaluator A requests the self-evaluation to be performed. In another embodiment, the terminal device 30 of the evaluator A transmits an e-mail, a short message, and the like to the effect that the evaluator A requests the evaluator A to execute the evaluation for itself to the terminal device 30 of the evaluator C. Is also good.

  In ST64, the evaluator C that has received the request from the evaluation target A accesses the external evaluation platform, for example, and logs in using the terminal device, and responds to the request from the evaluation target A.

FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram illustrating another example of a screen displayed on the terminal device 30 of the evaluator who has received a request from the evaluator in the communication system illustrated in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 11, as a most preferable specific example, the evaluator C can select whether to approve or forego the execution of the evaluation for the evaluation target A. The evaluator C can respond to such a request as shown in Table 2 below.

  Only when the evaluator C approves the execution of the evaluation for the evaluation target A (case 1 in Table 2), the evaluator C uses the terminal device 30 to execute the evaluation for the evaluation target A. Can be. The content of the evaluation performed by the evaluator C on the evaluation target person A is the same as that described above with reference to FIGS. 8A to 8E and FIGS. 9A to 9E.

  Users having a layer 2 relationship mutually browse an acquaintance list (contact list) and / or a user list indicating users having a layer 1, 2, 3 relationship via an external evaluation platform. And can be confirmed. However, the acquaintance list and the user list that have been set as private by the user may be made inaccessible to other users.

  Returning to FIG. 10, in ST66, the server device 10 receives, from the terminal device 30 of the evaluator C, information indicating the result of the evaluation for the evaluation target person A. The information indicating the evaluation result here indicates, for example, information indicating the content of the evaluator C's response to the big cards A to E and / or indicating the content of the evaluator C's response to the small cards A to E. Information can be included. The server device 10 that has received the information indicating the result of the answer from the evaluator C can store the result of the evaluation performed by the evaluator C in association with the evaluation target person A. Here, since the evaluation target A cannot recognize the subject (here, the evaluator C) that has performed the evaluation for itself via the external evaluation platform, it is possible to realize fair external evaluation.

4-3. Each user who is evaluated by an evaluator having a “layer 3” relationship with the evaluation target user can browse and confirm an acquaintance list held by another user via an external evaluation platform. Further, each user can browse and confirm a user list held by another user who has formed a layer 1 and / or layer 2 relationship. Each user can voluntarily evaluate a user selected from the users listed in the acquaintance list and / or the user list without receiving a request from another user.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating an example of an operation performed between the evaluator and the evaluator who shifts to (or shifts to) the layer 3 relationship in the communication system illustrated in FIG. As shown in FIG. 12, in ST70, the user D (evaluator D) uses the terminal device 30 via the external evaluation platform, for example, a user list held by the user B (this user list includes , The user A who has formed a layer 1 relationship with the user B is included), and the user A (evaluation target person A) is voluntarily selected from among the users listed in the user list. Choose as The terminal device 30 of the evaluator D transmits information indicating that the evaluator A has been selected from the user list of the user B to the server device 10. Here, the user A (evaluation target A) and the user B are the same as the user A (evaluation target A) and the user B (evaluator B) described with reference to FIG. 6 and the like, respectively.

  In ST72, the evaluator D executes the evaluation for the evaluation target person A. The content of the evaluation performed by the evaluator D on the evaluation target person A is the same as that described above with reference to FIGS. 8A to 8E and FIGS. 9A to 9E. As described above, the relationship between the evaluator D who evaluated the evaluation target person A and the evaluation target person A without receiving a request from the evaluation target person A is the “layer 3 relationship”.

  In ST74, server device 10 receives, from terminal device 30 of evaluator D, information indicating the result of the evaluation of evaluator A. The information indicating the evaluation result here indicates, for example, information indicating the content of the evaluator D's response to the big cards A to E and / or indicating the content of the evaluator's D response to the small cards A to E. Information can be included. The server device 10 that has received the information indicating the result of the response from the evaluator D can store the result of the evaluation performed by the evaluator D in association with the evaluation target person A. Here, since the evaluation subject A cannot recognize the subject (here, the evaluator D) that has performed the evaluation for itself via the external evaluation platform, a fair external evaluation can be realized.

5. Example of Generating Various Scores and the Like (ST42) Next, an example of generating various scores and the like executed in ST42 described above with reference to FIG. 5, that is, a big card and / or How to calculate various scores (display score, average score, and the like) indicating the creditworthiness of the evaluation target based on the result of the response to the small card will be specifically described.

  In the present embodiment, the server device 10 (the generation unit 130) and / or the terminal device 30 (the generation unit 260) converts the score indicating the creditworthiness of the evaluation target into, for example, a weighted score system and a net score system. Can be calculated by the following two methods. Hereinafter, the weighted score method and the net score method will be described in order. Here, for the sake of simplicity, a case will be described in which these scores are calculated for one evaluation target person (evaluation target person A).

5-1. About the weighted score method
(1) Digitization of Big Card Answers For evaluator A, one of "I think so" (thumbs-up icon) answered by evaluator B in each of big cards A, B, C and D is 5 Points are assigned point by point. A maximum of 25 points is assigned to each of the big cards A to D (that is, a total of 100 points is assigned to the big cards A to D as a whole). The score obtained by the evaluator for the answer to the big card for the evaluation subject A is referred to as “big card score”.

A coefficient (weight value) corresponding to the relationship between the evaluator A and the evaluator B (the frequency of contact between the evaluator A and the evaluator B and / or the degree of accessibility) with respect to the “big card score” (The coefficient shown in Table 3 below) is multiplied to generate a “big card layer weight value score”.

  The evaluator having the relationship of layer 1 or 2 has a high contact frequency and / or proximity to the evaluator A, and thus can evaluate the evaluator A more accurately and objectively. Can be On the other hand, the evaluator having the layer 3 relationship has a lower contact frequency and / or proximity to the evaluation subject A than the evaluator having the layer 1 or 2 relationship. It is considered that the subject A cannot always be evaluated sufficiently accurately and objectively. For this reason, by setting the weights corresponding to the respective layers as shown in Table 3 above, the evaluations made by the evaluators having the relationship of Layer 1 or 2 are larger, and the "Big Card Layer Weight Score" , While the evaluations made by the evaluators having a layer 3 relationship are relatively small and are reflected in the “big card layer weight value score”. In Table 3, as an example, the weight value corresponding to layer 1 and the weight value corresponding to layer 2 are set to be the same, but the weight value corresponding to layer 1 is the same as the weight value corresponding to layer 2. A larger value may be set.

  When the answer to the big cards A to D from the other evaluators has been obtained for the evaluation target A, the "big card score" is also obtained for each of the other evaluators as in the case of the evaluator B. And “Big card layer weight points” are generated.

  Next, for the same layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), if a response to a big card is obtained by a plurality of evaluators, for each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3) ), The average value of “big card layer weight points” is generated as “average score of big card layer weight values”.

(2) Digitization of Small Card Answers Regarding the evaluation target A, for each of "I think so" (thumbs-up icon) answered by the evaluator B in each of the small cards A, B, C and D, 5 Points are assigned point by point. A total of 25 points is assigned to each of the small cards A to D (that is, a total of 100 points is assigned to all of the small cards A to D). The score obtained by the evaluator for the answer to the small card for the evaluation subject A is referred to as “small card score”.

A coefficient (weight value) corresponding to the relationship between the evaluator A and the evaluator B (the frequency of contact and / or the degree of accessibility between the evaluator A and the evaluator B) with respect to the “small card score” (The coefficients shown in Table 4 below) are multiplied to generate “small card layer weight points”.

  The evaluator having the relationship of layer 1 or 2 has a high contact frequency and / or proximity to the evaluator A, and thus can evaluate the evaluator A more accurately and objectively. Can be On the other hand, the evaluator having the layer 3 relationship has a lower contact frequency and / or proximity to the evaluation subject A than the evaluator having the layer 1 or 2 relationship. It is considered that the subject A cannot always be evaluated sufficiently accurately and objectively. For this reason, by setting the weights corresponding to the respective layers as shown in Table 3 above, the evaluation made by the evaluator having the relationship of Layer 1 or 2 is larger, and the “small card layer weight value score” is larger. On the other hand, the evaluations made by the evaluators having the relationship of Layer 3 are relatively small and are reflected in the “small big layer weight value score”. In Table 4, as an example, the weight corresponding to layer 1 and the weight corresponding to layer 2 are set to be the same, but the weight corresponding to layer 1 is the same as the weight corresponding to layer 2. A larger value may be set.

  When the evaluator A has obtained answers to the small cards A to D from the other evaluators, the small card score is also obtained for each of the other evaluators, similarly to the evaluator B. And “small card layer weight points” are generated.

  Next, for the same layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), if multiple evaluators have obtained answers to the small card, for each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3) ), The average value of “small card layer weight points” is generated as “average point of small card layer weight points”.

(3) Generation of Weighted Score Next, for each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), the “average score of the big card layer weight” generated in (1) above and in (2) above The average with the generated “average score of small card layer weights” is generated as “layer weight card points”.

For each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), for "Layer weight card score", the number of evaluators prepared for each layer (how many evaluators evaluated the evaluator ) Is multiplied by a coefficient (weight value) (coefficient shown in Tables 5, 6, and 7 below). In this way, the scores generated for each layer are added up for all layers, so that a “weighted score” (display score) for the evaluation subject A is generated.

  FIG. 13A shows how the weight (Table 5) multiplied by the “layer weight card score” for layer 1 in the communication system shown in FIG. 1 changes according to the order in which the evaluators evaluated the evaluator. It is a graph which shows an example. FIG. 13B shows how the weights (Table 6) multiplied by the “layer weight card points” for layer 2 in the communication system shown in FIG. 1 change according to the order in which the evaluators evaluated the evaluator. It is a graph which shows an example. FIG. 13C shows how the weights (Table 7) multiplied by the “layer weight card points” for layer 3 in the communication system shown in FIG. 1 change according to the order in which the evaluators evaluated the evaluator. It is a graph which shows an example.

  13A to 13C, the slope of the straight line indicating the relationship between the number of evaluators and the weight is set to be larger in the order of layers 1, 2, and 3. This is for the following reason.

  Each evaluator in the layer 1 relationship with the evaluation target A has a high contact frequency and / or proximity to the evaluation target A, so that the evaluation target A can be evaluated most accurately and objectively. Conceivable. Thereby, even when the order of evaluation of the evaluator A by the evaluator is small (the total number of evaluators is small), a high weight is assigned while respecting the evaluation by the evaluator (the number of evaluators and The slope of the straight line indicating the relationship with the weight is set to be the smallest).

  Each evaluator in the relationship of the evaluation subject A with the layer 2 has a certain degree of contact frequency and / or proximity with the evaluation subject A, though not as much as each evaluator in the relationship of the layer 1; It is considered that the evaluation target person A can be evaluated to some extent accurately and objectively. As a result, even when the order of evaluation of the evaluator A by the evaluator is small (the total number of evaluators is small), a relatively high weight is assigned while respecting the evaluation by the evaluator to some extent. (The slope of the straight line indicating the relationship between the number of evaluators and the weight value is set relatively small).

  Each evaluator in the layer 3 relationship with the evaluator A has a lower contact frequency and / or proximity with the evaluator A than the evaluators in the layer 1 and 2 relationships. It is considered that it is not always possible to evaluate the person A sufficiently accurately and objectively. Thereby, when the order in which the evaluator evaluated the evaluation target person A is young (the total number of evaluators is small), a relatively low weight value is assigned (a straight line indicating the relationship between the number of evaluators and the weight value). Is set to be relatively large).

  Also, as is clear from Tables 5 to 7 and FIGS. 13A to 13C, when the order in which the evaluator evaluates the evaluation target person A is less than a predetermined value, the weight value (coefficient) is changed in that order. When the order in which the evaluator evaluates the evaluation subject A is equal to or more than a predetermined value, the weight value (coefficient) is constant. For example, referring to Table 5 above and Layer 13 of Layer 1, if the order is less than 50, the weight is proportional to the order, and if the order is 50 or more, the weight is constant (100 %).

  Further, as is clear from Tables 5 to 7 and FIGS. 13A to 13C, the predetermined value is set so as to increase in the order of layer 1, layer 2, and layer 3. The evaluator having the relationship between the evaluation target A and the layer 1 is considered to be able to evaluate the evaluation target A most accurately and objectively for the above-described reason. It is set small. On the other hand, the evaluator who is in the layer 3 relationship with the evaluation target person A is considered not to be able to necessarily evaluate the evaluation target person A sufficiently accurately and objectively for the above-described reason. The predetermined value for Layer 1 is set to be the largest.

  When the evaluator A has been evaluated by an evaluator having all the relationships of the layers 1, 2 and 3, the weighted score (display score) for the evaluator A is given by the following formula. It is possible to express.

ここで、ｌは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー１の関係を有する評価者の総数であり、Ｃ_ｉは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー１の関係を有するｉ番目の評価者が実行した評価に基づいて生成された個別スコアである。

Here, l is the total number of evaluators having the layer 1 relationship with the evaluation target A, and C _i is the i-th evaluator having the layer 1 relationship with the evaluation target A. It is an individual score generated based on the evaluated evaluation.

ここで、ｍは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー２の関係を有する評価者の総数であり、Ｃ_ｊは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー２の関係を有するｊ番目の評価者が実行した評価に基づいて生成された個別スコアである。

Here, m is the total number of evaluators having a layer 2 relationship with respect to the evaluation subject A, and C _j is the number of evaluators executed by the j-th evaluator having a layer 2 relationship with respect to the evaluation subject A. It is an individual score generated based on the evaluated evaluation.

ここで、ｎは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー３の関係を有する評価者の総数であり、Ｃ_ｋは、評価対象者Ａに対してレイヤー３の関係を有するｋ番目の評価者が実行した評価に基づいて生成された個別スコアである。

Here, n is the total number of evaluators having a layer 3 relationship with the evaluation target A, and C _k is the number of evaluators executed by the k-th evaluator having the layer 3 relationship with the evaluation target A. It is an individual score generated based on the evaluated evaluation.

Further, the weighted score (display score) C _avg is represented by the following equation.
C _avg = C _1a × 0.4 + C _2a × 0.4 + C _3a × 0.2
According to the mathematical formula shown above, the individual score (C _i , C _j, C _k ) generated for the evaluator for the evaluator A is multiplied by two types of coefficients related to the evaluator. It is understood that it is possible to generate an adjustment score, and to generate a display score indicating the creditworthiness of the evaluation target A using the average value of the adjustment scores generated for each evaluator for the evaluation target A. .

  According to the above formula, in order to generate a display score for the evaluation subject A, a process of multiplying the individual score by two types of weights (coefficients) and an average value for a plurality of evaluators There is no limitation on the order in which each of the processes for calculating is performed. That is, (1) a process of multiplying the individual score by a first weight (a weight corresponding to the order in which the evaluation target was evaluated), and a process of multiplying a second weight (a weight corresponding to the layer) , And the process of multiplying the average value, or (2) the process of multiplying the second weight value, the process of multiplying the first weight value, and the process of calculating the average value Each process may be performed in the order described above, or (3) a process of multiplying by the first weight value when performing the process of calculating the average value, and then performing a process of multiplying by the second weight value. (4) When performing the process of calculating the average value, both the process of multiplying by the first weight value and the process of multiplying by the second weight value may be performed. Processing to multiply two kinds of weights to obtain the same display score as A process of calculating an average value for the evaluator may be performed in accordance with any other order.

  In the present embodiment, as the most preferable embodiment, two types of coefficients related to the evaluator (evaluator A is evaluated for the individual score generated for the evaluator for evaluator A). A description has been given of the embodiment in which both the coefficient corresponding to the order and the coefficient corresponding to the relationship between the evaluator and the evaluation subject A) are multiplied. However, in another embodiment, two types of coefficients related to the evaluator (the coefficients corresponding to the order in which the evaluator , And a coefficient corresponding to the relationship between the evaluator and the evaluation subject A).

5-2. Regarding the net score method, the average of the “big card points” and “small card points” for each evaluator for the evaluator A, that is, the average of the individual scores generated for each evaluator for the evaluator A is the evaluation target. Is generated as the “net score” (average score) for the person A.

  Further, accuracy information indicating the accuracy of the “net score” (average score) may be generated as additional information to the “net score”, for example, as follows.

Assuming that the card score (big card score and / or small card score) obtained by the evaluation target person A is x, and the total number of evaluations for the evaluation target person A (total number of evaluators) is n, the evaluation target is the nth evaluation target. The average m (corresponding to “net score”) of the scores obtained by the player A follows the following formula.

ここで、Ｖは分布（Variance）を意味する。The accuracy of m can be based on the distribution of the deviation between m and each card score x. It can be said that the larger the distribution of the deviation, the lower the accuracy for the m, and the smaller the distribution of the deviation, the higher the accuracy for the m. This can be expressed as the following equation.

Here, V means distribution.

ここで、σは標準偏差（Standard deviation）を意味する。

Here, σ means a standard deviation.

In order to calculate the accuracy (Accuracy; A) for m, the concept of CV (Coefficient of Variation) is used. CV is a value indicating the distribution of the number of cards centered on m, and is a value obtained by dividing the standard deviation by the average. The accuracy A is expressed by the following equation.

5-3. For graphically the evaluated propensity big card E (see FIG. 8E) and small card E (see FIG. 9E) is a card that contains the questions related to the propensity of the evaluation subject A, the server apparatus 10 (the generator 130) and / or (the generation unit 260 of) the terminal device 30 can analyze the tendency of the evaluation subject A by combining these two types of cards.

  The tendency of the answer of each item of the big card E and the small card E to be indicated by +/- percentage is referred to as "propensity percentage".

(1) Analysis of Big Card E The relationship between the evaluator A and the evaluator B with respect to the propensity percentage of the big card E (the frequency of contact between the evaluator A and the evaluator B and / or the high accessibility) ) Is multiplied by the coefficient (weighted value) (the coefficient shown in Table 3 above) to generate a “big card propensity percentage”.

  When a response to the big card E from another evaluator has been obtained for the evaluator A, the “big card propensity percentage” for each of the other evaluators is the same as for the evaluator B. Generated.

  Next, for the same layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), if a response to the big card E is obtained by a plurality of evaluators, for each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3) ), The average value of “Big Card Propensity Percentage” is generated as “Big Card Propensity Average Percentage”.

(2) Analysis of Small Card E The relationship between the evaluator A and the evaluator B with respect to the propensity percentage of the small card E (the frequency of contact between the evaluator A and the evaluator B and / or the high accessibility) ) Is multiplied by a coefficient (weight value) (coefficient shown in Table 3 above) to generate “small card propensity percentage”.

  When the evaluator A has obtained a response to the small card E from another evaluator, the “small card propensity percentage” is the same for each of the other evaluators as in the evaluator B. Generated.

  Next, for the same layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), if a plurality of evaluators have obtained answers to small card E, then for each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3) ), The average value of “small card propensity percentage” is generated as “small card propensity average percentage”.

(3) Schematic representation of propensity The average of the average percentage of big card propensity and the average percentage of small card propensity is generated as “average propensity percentage”.

  For each layer (for each of layers 1, 2 and 3), the "average propensity percentage" is calculated based on the number of evaluators prepared for each layer (how many evaluators rated the evaluator). The corresponding coefficient (weight) (the coefficient shown in Tables 5, 6, and 7 above) is multiplied. In this way, the scores generated for each layer are added up for all the layers, thereby generating the “user tendency” for the evaluation target person A (an example of the display of the “user tendency” is shown in FIG. 14). .

6. Next, an example of generation of ranking information and the like (ST44) will be described, which is executed as an option in ST44 described above with reference to FIG.

  In the present embodiment, the server device 10 (the generation unit 130) and / or the terminal device 30 (the generation unit 260) may optionally include a display score and / or an average score generated for the evaluation subject, and a predetermined number of It is possible to generate rank information indicating the rank of the display score and / or the average score generated for the evaluation subject in the entirety including the display score and / or the average score generated for another evaluation target.

  The display score and / or the average score generated for a certain evaluation target person (here, the evaluation target person A) is calculated based on the display score and / or the average score and the display generated for a predetermined number of other evaluation target people. Regarding the total number including the score and / or the average score, a known technique (identifying the magnitude relationship between each display score and / or the average score and other display scores and / or the average scores) Can be easily identified. The predetermined number of other evaluation target persons may be a predetermined number of other evaluation target persons common to the evaluation target person A at some point (the same place of residence, gender, age, occupation, etc.).

  Furthermore, (the storage unit 120 of) the server device 10 stores the ranking information (for the display score) generated at a plurality of different points in time for the evaluation target person for comparison and display on the display unit 240 or the like of the terminal device 30 later. Ranking information and / or ranking information about the average score) can be stored in association with this evaluation subject.

7. Display of Various Scores and / or Rank Information (ST46) Next, display (browsing) of various scores and the like executed in ST46 described above with reference to FIG. 5 will be described.

  For example, the control unit 140 and the communication unit 110 of the server device 10 use the information generated by the generation unit 130 (or may be information stored in the storage unit 120) to generate information as illustrated in FIG. Can be displayed on the display unit 240 of the terminal device 30. Alternatively or additionally, for example, the control unit 250 and the display unit 240 of the terminal device 30 use information generated by the generation unit 260 (and may be information stored in the storage unit 220). Thus, for example, information as shown in FIG. 14 can be displayed on the display unit 240 of the terminal device 30.

  FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a screen displayed on the terminal device 30 in the communication system illustrated in FIG. FIG. 14 shows a specific example of the page of the user A himself / herself displayed on the display unit of the terminal device of the user A who has logged in to the external evaluation platform.
