There is provided an association apparatus for associating a plurality of voice data converted from voices produced by speakers, comprising: a word/phrase similarity deriving section which derives an appearance ratio of a common word/phrase that is common among the voice data based on a result of speech recognition processing on the voice data, as a word/phrase similarity; a speaker similarity deriving section which derives a result of comparing characteristics of voices extracted from the voice data, as a speaker similarity; an association degree deriving section which derives a possibility of the plurality of the voice data, which are associated with one another, based on the derived word/phrase similarity and the speaker similarity, as an association degree; and an association section which associates the plurality of the voice data with one another, the derived association degree of which is equal to or more than a preset threshold.
