  1. Title & Reference:

    Brixey, J., & Novick, D. (2019). Building rapport with extraverted and introverted agents. In Advanced Social Interaction with Agents (pp. 3-13). Springer, Cham.

  2. Objective:

    This study examines if humans will report greater rapport when interacting with an agent with an extroversion/introversion profile similar to their own.

  3. Memo:

    • our results suggest that the best option would be an extraverted personality, as both introverts and extraverts reported higher levels of rapport with an extroverted agent than introverted

    • introverts did not show preference for either agent.

    • introverts reported the lowest level of rapport when interacting with the introverted agent

    • Results suggest that subjects did not report the greatest rapport when interacting with the agent most similar to their level of extraversion.
