Tojisha-kenkyu Laboratory
Kumagaya Laboratory

We are using experimental psychological techniques to test some hypotheses about physical and cognitive diversity derived from tojisha-kenkyu of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and exploring conditions for a social environment that is inclusive of different neurodivergent peoples. We have also developed an ASD Perception Experience Simulator, which allows users to have the kind of audiovisual experiences reported by people with ASD, and are currently verifying its effectiveness in reducing stigma.
