Opinion prediction as communicative success, and the role of visual information in conversations
(2012) In [submitted]- Abstract
- Abstract in Undetermined
We devised a measure based on predictions of a conversation partner's opinion in order to approximate
communicative success in an unrestricted conversation with or without access to visual information.
We validated this prediction-based measure against our intuitions that participants would have lower
prediction errors in conversations where the participants rated that they contributed more and were
more engaged in. Our results show that visual information in the form of images accompanying the
conversation topics decreased the prediction errors of the participants, but only for images that were
rated as helpful.
