Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Physical correlates of perceived personal identity are
investigated using imitated 16 utterances spoken by 11
mimicry speakers and 24 test subjects. Our unique strategy
to use non-professional impersonators enabled to prepare test
utterances with wide range of perceived similarities.
Reasonably high correlations (0.46 and 0.44) in multiple
regression analysis were attained by grouping subjects into
three groups based on cluster analysis of the subjective test
results. Without clustering, the correlation was only 0.17. The
cluster analysis also revealed differences in their focusing
physical correlates between three groups indicating
importance of individual differences both in speakers and
listeners.
