Understanding Social Intelligence

Believable social interaction is not only about agents that look right but also do the right thing. To achieve this we must consider the everyday knowledge and expectations by which users make sense of real, fictive or artificial social beings. This folk-theoretical understanding of other social beings involves several, rather independent, levels such as expectations on behaviour, expectations on primitive psychology, models of folk-psychology, understanding of traits, social roles and empathy. Implications for Socially Intelligent A gents (SIA) research are discussed.
