Abstract
We propose an approach for creating agent-based “man-in-the-loop” simulation scenarios for training military and paramilitary staff. The approach is based on psychological theories and enables to define small standalone simulation scenarios for a certain context. It considers several types of personality profiles. Each profile is represented as a combination of needs-based personality characteristics. The overall objective of this research is to achieve realistic “man-in-the-loop” military training scenarios where some roles are played by humans and some other roles by software agents.
