Abstract

As user modelling moves away from a tightly integrated adjunct of adaptive systems and into user modelling service provision, it is important to consider what facets or characteristics of a user might need to be contained within a user model in order to support cognitive functions. Here we examine previous mechanisms for creating a metacognitive and affective user model. We then take first steps to describe the necessary characteristics of a user model we envisage being utilised by an affective metacognitive modelling service and make some suggestion for the source, form and content of such characteristics.
