Emotion Shapes and Is Shaped By Human-Machine Interaction

Friday, May 26, 2023 · Washington, DC

Oral · Personality/Emotion

Emotion is both a determinant and outcome of human-machine interaction in domains ranging from therapy to emergency evacuation. Here, we focus on emotional expression as a means of conveying social intentions to machines, fear and over-reliance on machine recommendations during crises, and potential therapeutic advantages of confiding in virtual agents.
