Virtual Humans Workshop


  • Is it more appropriate to construct a frame of analysis that encompasses both user and ECA in a single interaction graph?
  • Is it fitting to think in terms of a fixed graph that the user comes to recognize, or is the graph itself a dynamic structure?
  • Is it even appropriate to focus on "affordances to act," or is it more fitting to consider cues that influence the mental interpretations that lead to action (e.g., affordances of control, affordances of valence of potential outcomes, etc.)? How does this relate to intrinsic motivation?
