Details Humans are capable of thinking in terms of conceptual blending, which combines existing concepts to create and interpret new concepts. We aim at clarifying an effective method for realizing co-creative communication between humans and robots through a constructive approach. We investigated the effects of a dialogue in which a robot evokes conceptual blending. It could be argued that for a partner who appears to be interested in the meaning of blended concepts, humans may be more willing to interact with them and to afford them information, which may raise the possibility of human-robot co-creation.
