Collaborative plans for complex group action
, 1996
"... The original formulation of SharedPlans by B. Grosz and C. Sidner ( 1990) was developed to provide a model of collaborative planning in which it was not necessary for one agent to have intentions-to toward an act of a different agent. Unlike other contemporaneous approaches (J.R. Searle, 1990), this ..."

not adequately deal with agents having only partial knowledge of the way in which to perform an action. This paper provides a revised and expanded version of SharedPlans that addresses these shortcomings. It also reformulates Pollack’s ( 1990) definition of individual plans to handle cases in which a single
Automaticity of social behavior: Direct effects of trait construct and stereotype activation on action
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1996
"... Previous research has shown that trait concepts and stereotypes become active automatically in the presence of relevant behavior or stereotyped-group features. Through the use of the same priming procedures as in previous impression formation research, Experiment l showed that participants whose con ..."

For many years, social psychologists have studied the effects of priming on the individual's subsequent impressions of others. Priming refers to the incidental activation of knowledge
What Can Economists Learn from Happiness Research?
- FORTHCOMING IN JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC LITERATURE
, 2002
"... Happiness is generally considered to be an ultimate goal in life; virtually everybody wants to be happy. The United States Declaration of Independence of 1776 takes it as a self-evident truth that the “pursuit of happiness” is an “unalienable right”, comparable to life and liberty. It follows that e ..."

for economists to consider happiness. The first is economic policy. At the micro-level, it is often impossible to make a Pareto-optimal proposal, because a social action entails costs for some individuals. Hence an evaluation of the net effects, in terms of individual utilities, is needed. On an aggregate level
Conversation as Experiential Learning

"... This article proposes a framework relevant to the continuous learning of individuals and organizations. Drawing from the theory of experiential learning, the article proposes conversational learning as the experiential learning process occurring in conversation as learners construct meaning from t ..."

The five dialectics—apprehension and comprehension; reflection and action; epistemological discourse and ontological recourse; individuality and relationality
ALLIANCE: An Architecture for Fault Tolerant Multi-Robot Cooperation

Social force model for pedestrian dynamics
- Physical Review E
, 1995
"... It is suggested that the motion of pedestrians can be described as if they would be subject to ‘social forces’. These ‘forces ’ are not directly exerted by the pedestrians ’ personal environment, but they are a measure for the internal motivations of the individuals to perform certain actions (movem ..."

Comprehensive database for facial expression analysis
- in Proceedings of Fourth IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition
"... Within the past decade, significant effort has occurred in developing methods of facial expression analysis. Because most investigators have used relatively limited data sets, the generalizability of these various methods remains unknown. We describe the problem space for facial expression analysis, ..."

Costly search and mutual fund flows

USER ACCEPTANCE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: TOWARD A UNIFIED VIEW
