Validity of a Virtual Negotiation Training

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 6895))

Abstract

In this paper we present a rigorously setup VR negotiation training, including an intelligent virtual agent able to express emotion and to give explanations of its behavior. We discuss the measures we took to ensure the validity of the VR training. We also present a small scale experiment showing convergent validity of the VR training.
