Abstract(in English)	This paper describes experimental investigation how agents' appearance affect users' interpretations of agents' attitudes. Specifically, we conducted a psychological experiment that participants were presented sounds as subtle expressions that can make human users estimate specific agents' attitudes, such as positive or negative from three different agents, e.g., MindStorms robot, AIBO robot, and normal laptop PC. As the results, participants showed the higher interpretation rates when the sounds were presented from PC, while they did the lower interpretation rates when these sounds were did from MindStorms and AIBO robots, even thought these three agents presented the completely same sounds.
