How Robots Persuasion based on Personality Traits May Affect Human Decisions

The use of autonomous agents, such as robots, to perform tasks such as cleaning the floor or washing the car are more frequent in our daily life. Moreover, with the advance of technology the society is in front of a new trend, your devices are connected to each other, for example, the robot that cleans the floor is connected to the cellphone. This trend was named as Smart Interaction. Those connections may be used to persuade the person to do some task in his/her own benefits, e.g., the refrigerator could recommend healthy foods if the bathroom scale informs that the person is overweight. However, the communications and the persuasions made by these autonomous agents should not be performed in an invasive way. In this sense, our motivation is to create a model were the autonomous agents may perform persuasion based on the person's personality traits.
