The role of mental models and sense of agency in learning crossmodal communicative acts (C09*)

该项目使用发送者-接受者-游戏来研究小说交流中的心理理论(TOM)和代理感(SOA)，该游戏要求发送者产生新的移动模式(消息)作为向接收者传达他/她的目标位置的手段。使用行为测量、眼球跟踪、计算建模和神经元数据(MRI和MEG记录)，我们将分析生成其他玩家的心理模型的能力，并使用它们来预测行为。这些发现将被用来开发一种具有Tom和SoA功能的人造代理，它可以在发送者-接收者的环境中成功地与人类互动。

The Project investigates Theory of Mind (ToM) and Sense of Agency (SoA) during novel communication using a sender-receiver-game that requires the sender to generate novel movement patterns (the message) as a means of communicating his/her goal position to the receiver. Using behavioural measures, eye-tracking, computational modelling, and neuronal data (MRI and MEG recordings), we will analyse the capabilities of generating mental models of the other player and use them to predict behaviour. These findings will be used to develop an artificial agent with ToM and SoA capacities that can successfully interact with humans in the sender-receiver context.
