Abstract(in English) How and why did human being acquire the ability of verbal communication? To consider the problem concerned with the origin of a verbal communication, we should consider why verbal communication brings a profit for the survival of an individual. In this study we examined the condition under which common words to express objects emerge without mutual mimicry of words among agents who pursue their own profit. Various threshold of survival conditions are prepared and the conditions under which common words for objects and cooperative behaviors including altruistic behavior emerge are investigated. The results suggest that altruistic behaviors tend to emerge when survival probability of agents is determined by absolute assessment.
