“…Seen through a communicative lens, meeting minutes may be able to show whether messages about the medical treatment for alcohol use disorder engaged with the community. The analysis of meeting minutes has been done in previous research (Nagao et al, 2015;Tomobe & Nagao, 2007). Known as "discussion mining" the process of extracting summative information from minutes follows a process of semantic annotation of relevant discussion content (Nagao, 2007;Nagao et al, 2005).…”

The focus of this article is the evaluation of the quality and the degree of community engagement in an expert-based, public-health communicative intervention for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). In 2023 the Canadian Alcohol Use Disorder Society collaborated with a grass-roots community health group, a regional health authority, and an academic participatory researcher to organize a working group to mount a social-marketing campaign to increase community support for AUD medical treatment in family-practice settings in a rural community in British Columbia. The partnership working group conducted a series of activities in the school system, the town council, and the community. This article covers the formative evaluation and the summative evaluation of the working group's effectiveness. The formative evaluation ("lessons learned" and "recommendations") consists of consensus evaluations of the quality of each activity using a variety of data sources. The formative evaluation followed improvement science methods and used consensus meetings to provide and reflect on formal and informal feedback. Formative results reflect the consensus of the participants in the working group and they record the reactions in the community. The summative evaluation measures evidence of community engagement found in transcribed text from meeting minutes. The summative evaluation used theory-based frameworks and text data visualization to assess the engagement dynamics of the working group. The summative evaluation helps to put the formative evaluation into perspective as communicative action. The summative evaluation validates the formative evaluation by revealing the communicative dynamics of engagement which resulted in the community’s increased capacity to understand and support Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment options. The working group and the entire intervention was seen by the participants and the public as a success and capable of replication. In a small community, it instilled new understandings and attitudes, bringing an emerging awareness of medication as an optional health mitigation strategy for Alcohol Use Disorder. Our study furthers this overall assessment by using theoretical constructs and analysis of communicative records to trace engagement characteristics of interest to researchers, societies, and community groups contemplating similar interventions in the future. The study also validates the effectiveness of communicative analysis as a measure of social-marketing for expert-based public health interventions.

We are researching a mechanism to promote innovation by supporting discussions based on the premise that innovation results from discussions. Ideas are created and developed mainly by conversations in creative meetings like those in brainstorming. Ideas are also refined in the process of repeated discussions. Our previous research called discussion mining was specifically used to collect various data on meetings (statements and their relationships, presentation materials such as slides, audio and video, and participants' evaluations on statements). We extracted important statements to be considered especially after the meetings had been held and actions had been undertaken, such as investigations and implementations that were performed in relation to these statements by using the collected data. Here, we present high-probability statements that should lead to innovations during meetings and facilitate creative discussions. We also propose a creative activity support system that should help users to discover and execute essential tasks.

“…Thus, task statements have been automatically extracted by using a machine learning model that has metadata in a seminar content and linguistic information of the utterance as features [16] [17]. The extracted task statement list is shown in the statement view of RAO (Figure 4, 6).…”

Abstract-Research activities carried out daily in research laboratories, include conducting investigations, giving seminars on progress, performing experiments, analyzing results, and writing papers, but all of these research activities involve steady, methodical work that does not produce immediate, visible results. For this reason, a mechanism to maintain motivation when research is not going well or to help students get on track with research when they have just been assigned to a laboratory could be useful. Students that have just begun their research may not yet understand how to proceed. We previously developed a research activity concierge (RAC) system, which is a platform to encompass general research activities, and applied gamification to this system to keep user motivation high. However, even with the RAC, non-research-savvy students have difficulty handling challenges and executing tasks. In this research, we focused on discussions in seminars and introduced a mechanism to support task execution in students' research activities by implementing automatic extraction of task statements into the RAC.
