A framework for argumentation-based negotiation

by Carles Sierra, Nick R. Jennings, Pablo Noriega, Simon Parsons - Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Agent Theories, Architectures, and Languages (ATAL-97), volume 1365 of LNAI , 1998
"... Abstract. Many autonomous agents operate in domains in which the cooperation of their fellow agents cannot be guaranteed. In such domains negotiation is essential to persuade others of the value of co-operation. This paper describes a general framework for negotiation in which agents exchange propos ..."

proposals backed by arguments which summarise the reasons why the proposals should be accepted. The argumentation is persuasive because the exchanges are able to alter the mental state of the agents involved. The framework is inspired by our work in the domain of business process management and is explained

Manipulation of the running variable in the regression discontinuity design: A density test

by Justin Mccrary - Journal of Econometrics 142 , 2008
"... Standard sufficient conditions for identification in the regression discontinuity design are continuity of the conditional expectation of counterfactual outcomes in the running variable. These continuity assumptions may not be plausible if agents are able to manipulate the running variable. This pap ..."

SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY OF PERSUASION APPLIED TO HUMAN–AGENT INTERACTION

by unknown authors
"... Abstract: This paper discusses and evaluates the application of a social psychologically enriched, user-centered approach to agent architecture design. The major aim is to facilitate human–agent interaction (HAI) by making agents not only algorithmically more intelligent but also socially more skill ..."

This superior performance seems to be rooted in a more trusting collaborative relationship between the user and the agent, rather than in the appropriateness of the agent’s decision-making suggestions alone. In particular, the second experiment demonstrated that interface interaction design

Persuasion in politics

by M. Murphy, Andrei Shleifer, Robert Bates, David Laibson, Jesse Shapiro - American Economic Review
"... Recent research on social psychology and public opinion identifies a number of empirical regularities on how people form beliefs in the political and social spheres.

Third, in the political arena, voter awareness of specific issues is quite low, and hence susceptibility to persuasion is high (Zaller, 1992). We present a model of the creation of social networks, and of their use by politicians
