Anthropomorphisation of software agents as a persuasive tool

    Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

    Abstract

    In this position paper, we make an argument for the anthropomorphism of software agents as a persuasive tool. We begin by discussing some of the relevant applications, before providing a brief introduction to the CASA theory of social interaction with computers. We conclude by describing a selection of the evidence for anthropomorphism, and an argument for further research into this area
