title = "Anthropomorphism, Agency, \& Ethopoeia: Computers as Social Actors",
abstract = "Attempts to generate anthropomorphic responses to computers have been based on complex, agent-based interfaces. This study provides experimental evidence that minimal social cues can induce computer-literate individuals to use social rules-praise of others is more valid than praise of self, praise of others is friendlier than pmise of self, and criticism of others is less friendly than criticism of self-to evaluate the performance of computers. We also demonstrate that different voices are treated as distinct agents.",
