Join me here if you will: Investigating embodiment and politeness behaviors when joining small groups of humans, robots, and virtual characters
Politeness and embodiment are pivotal elements in human-agent interactions. While many
previous works advocate the positive role of embodiment in enhancing these interactions, it …

Influence of virtual agent politeness behaviors on how users join small conversational groups
Politeness behaviors could affect individuals' decisions heavily in their daily lives and may
therefore also play an important role in human-agent interactions. This study considers the …
