Shahid, Suleman, Krahmer, Emiel, Swerts, Marc, Melder, Willem A. and Neerincx, Mark A. (2009): Exploring social and temporal dimensions of emotion induction using an adaptive affective mirror. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2009 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2009. pp. 3727-3732. Available online

This paper investigates if and how a digital, interactive affective mirror induces positive emotions in participants. We study whether the induced affect is repeatable after a fixed interval (Study 1) and how the social presence affects the emotion induction (Study 2). Results show that participants systematically feel more positive after an affective mirror session; this effect is shown to be repeatable, and co-presence of a friend is shown to boost this effect.

Mubin, Omar, Shahid, Suleman, Bartneck, Christoph, Krahmer, Emiel, Swerts, Marc and Feijs, Loe (2009): Using language tests and emotional expressions to determine the learnability of artificial languages. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2009 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2009. pp. 4075-4080. Available online

The study described hereunder lies within the context of a larger project focusing on the design and implementation of a "Robotic Interaction Language". The research goal of this project is to find the right balance between the effort necessary from the user to learn a new or artificial language and the resulting benefit of robust communication between a robot and the user as a direct consequence of optimized speech recognition. To measure the first criteria we have explored two methods to evaluate language learnability, namely Language Tests and analyzing expressed emotions during interaction in an artificial language. Our results indicate that both have potential in being used as measurement tools for evaluating the learnability of artificial languages.

Software design is the act of determining the user's experience with a piece of software. It has nothing to do with how the code works inside, or how big or small the code is. The designer's task is to specify completely and unambiguously the user's whole experience.

-- David Liddle, From Bringing Design to Software, edited by Terry Winograd, 1996
