Abstract

In this paper we introduce a method for generating a set of possible reasons of an action needed by an AI program for reasoning about human behavior. We achieve this goal by using web-mining and lexicons of keywords reflecting 14 instincts categories developed by psychologist William McDougall. We describe our system, the experiment and analyze its results of 78% of correct retrievals. The paper is also meant to be a message to social scientists who might be interested in testing their theories on constantly growing group of Internet users.
