In this study, we highlight the theoretical underpinnings of human impression management tactics and link them to current research in embodied conversational agents. Specifically, we incorporated impression management behaviors into an embodied conversational agent in order to show that different influence strategies affect user perceptions, and how those perceptions might be moderated by user gender. We programmed the agent to use two human impression management techniques (ingratiation and self-promotion) and had the agent interact with 88 users. After the interaction, users reported their perceptions of the system’s power, trustworthiness, expertise, and attractiveness. The impression management techniques altered users’ perceptions and these perceptions were moderated by gender differences. 相似文献

Examining gender differences in attitudes toward interactive classroom communications systems (ICCS)
An interactive classroom communication system (ICCS) involves the use of remote devices that permit all students in a class to respond to multiple choice questions displayed on a LCD projector. After responses are clicked in, the results are instantly aggregated and displayed in chart form. The purpose of this study was to examine gender differences in attitudes toward ICCSs for 659 secondary school students. The initial results suggested that male students had significantly more positive attitudes than female students with respect to student involvement, assessment, and perceived learning. However, a number of these differences disappeared when computer comfort level and type of use were added as covariates. Male students still perceived that ICCSs improved the overall learning process more than female students regardless of computer comfort level or type of use. 相似文献

Two methods are available for the estimation of the angular velocity of a rigid body from point-acceleration measurements:
(i) the time-integration of the angular acceleration and (ii) the square-rooting of the centripetal acceleration. The inaccuracy
of the first method is due mainly to the accumulation of the error on the angular acceleration throughout the time-integration
process, which does not prevent that it be used successfully in crash tests with dummies, since these experiments never last
more than one second. On the other hand, the error resulting from the second method is stable through time, but becomes inaccurate
whenever the rigid body angular velocity approaches zero, which occurs in many applications. In order to take advantage of
the complementarity of these two methods, a fusion of their estimates is proposed. To this end, the accelerometer measurements
are modeled as exact signals contaminated with bias errors and Gaussian white noise. The relations between the variables at
stake are written in the form of a nonlinear state-space system in which the angular velocity and the angular acceleration
are state variables. Consequently, a minimum-variance-error estimate of the state vector is obtained by means of extended
Kalman filtering. The performance of the proposed estimation method is assessed by means of simulation. Apparently, the resulting
estimation method is more robust than the existing accelerometer-only methods and competitive with gyroscope measurements.
Moreover, it allows the identification and the compensation of any bias error in the accelerometer measurements, which is
a significant advantage over gyroscopes. 相似文献
