Abstract

In the era of globalization, concepts such as individualization and personalization become more and more important in virtual systems. With the goal of creating a more familiar interaction between human and machines, it makes sense to create a consistent and believable model of personality. This paper presents an explicit model of personality, based in the Five Factor Model, which aims at the creation of distinguishable personalities by using the personality traits to automatically influence cognitive processes: appraisal, planning, coping, and bodily expression.
