"By the way, do you like Spider Man?" -Towards A Social Planning Model for Rapport
Abstract
Interaction takes place not only on the propositional level but also on the social level. In this paper, we consider rapport as an important social phenomenon in interaction. Motivated by data from the tutoring domain, we hypothesize that (i) off-task episodes are triggered by a low level of rapport and (ii) such episodes are means of raising the level of rapport. We sketch a planning model that allows off-task episodes to be triggered by (low) rapport level, which we apply to two simple examples.
