Abstract

How human users perceive and interact with interactive story-telling applications has not been widely researched so far. In this paper, we present an experimental approach in which we investigate the impact of different dialog-based interaction styles on human users. To this end, an interactive demonstrator has been evaluated in two different versions: one providing a continuous interaction style where interaction is possible at any time, and another providing system-initiated interaction where the user can only interact at certain prompts.
