Personification and Embodiment?

چکیده
The term “believability” is often used to describe the expectations concerning virtual agents. In this paper we analyze which factors influence the believability of the agent acting as software assistant. We consider several factors such as embodiment, communicative behavior, as well as emotional capabilities. We conduct a perceptive study where we analyze the role of plausible and/or appropriate emotional displays in relation with believability. We also investigate how people judge the believability of the agent, and whether it provokes social reactions of humans toward it. Finally we also evaluate the respective impact of embodiment and emotion over believability judgments. The results of our study show that (a) appropriate emotions lead to higher perceived believability, (b) the notion of believability is closely correlated with the two major socio-cognitive variables, namely competence and warmth, and (c) considering an agent as believable can be different from having human-like attitude toward it. Finally, a primacy of emotion behavior over embodiment while judging believability is also hypothesized from free comments given by the participants of this experiment.

Much of synaesthesia research focused on colour, but not all cross-domain correspondences reported by synaesthetes are strictly sensory. For example, some synaesthetes personify letters and numbers, in additional to visualizing them in colour.
