Abstract: There is a method for monitoring emotion and behavior occurring during a conversation with a user who is in need of protection. According to an embodiment, a user monitoring method receives an input of a user utterance and generates a conversation content by using a conversation model based on a user utterance content, converts the generated conversation content into a voice and outputs the voice, and recognizes emotion of the user by using an emotion analysis model based on the user utterance content and monitors the emotion. Accordingly, the method may monitor behavior/emotion of a user through a natural conversation while allowing a specialist/guardian to monitor an abnormal sign of a user who is in need of protection.
