Abstract
We aim to model and simulate some aspects of group dynamics as found in negotiation dialogues among humans. We first introduce Avatar Arena, a test-bed for the simulation of negotiation dialogues among characters that have (i) attitudes towards their communication partners, (ii) attitudes to certain subject matters relevant in a certain negotiation domain, and (iii) beliefs about another character’s attitudes.
