Using Personality Types to Support Argumentation

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 6057))

Abstract

Despite the advances in argumentation on group decision negotiation there is a need to simulate and identify the personality of participants. To make participants agents more human-like and to increase their flexibility in the negotiation process in group decision-making, the authors investigated the role of personality behaviours of participants applied to the conflict style theme. The negotiation is made in a bilateral way where both parties are OCEAN participant agents based on the five-factor model of personality (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Negative emotionality).
