提出情绪化论证评估框架,揭示个人身份如何影响说服力判断。

Trust Me, I Can Convince You: The Contextualized Argument Appraisal Framework

  • 将心理学评估模型引入论点分析,融合身份、熟悉度与情绪反应。
  • 4000条标注显示:信任感提升说服力,愤怒则显著降低说服力。
  • 适合研究人机交互、社交媒体说服力或个性化推荐系统者阅读。

人们基于论点产生的情绪不仅取决于论点本身,还受其对自身潜在影响的主观评估。例如,瓶装水禁令可能引发相关行业工人对失业的恐惧,从而削弱其说服力,与内容无关。尽管论点情绪性已有研究,但认知评估模型尚未应用于论点说服力分析。为此,我们提出上下文化论证评估框架(ContArgA),建模发送者、接收者与论点之间的互动。借鉴心理学中的评估模型,引入论点愉悦度、熟悉度、响应紧迫性、预期努力及说服力变量。为评估框架并推动计算建模,我们设计基于角色扮演的标注方法,模拟真实世界中接触论点的情境。参与者需披露情绪、主因、论点评估及感知说服力,并提供人口统计与人格特质数据,同时说明对论点发送者的看法。分析4000条标注所得的ContArgA语料库发现,说服力与积极情绪(如信任)正相关,与消极情绪(如愤怒)负相关。评估变量尤其凸显了注释者对论点熟悉度的重要性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Emotions that somebody develops based on an argument do not only depend on the argument itself - they are also influenced by a subjective evaluation of the argument's potential impact on the self. For instance, an argument to ban plastic bottles might cause fear of losing a job for a bottle industry worker, which lowers the convincingness - presumably independent of its content. While binary emotionality of arguments has been studied, such cognitive appraisal models have only been proposed in other subtasks of emotion analysis, but not in the context of arguments and their convincingness. To fill this research gap, we propose the Contextualized Argument Appraisal Framework to model the interplay between the sender, receiver, and argument. We adapt established appraisal models from psychology to argument mining, including argument pleasantness, familiarity, response urgency, and expected effort, as well as convincingness variables. To evaluate the framework and pave the way for computational modeling, we develop a novel role-playing-based annotation setup, mimicking real-world exposure to arguments. Participants disclose their emotion, explain the main cause, the argument appraisal, and the perceived convincingness. To consider the subjective nature of such annotations, we also collect demographic data and personality traits of both the participants and ask them to disclose the same variables for their perception of the argument sender. The analysis of the resulting ContArgA corpus of 4000 annotations reveals that convincingness is positively correlated with positive emotions (e.g., trust) and negatively correlated with negative emotions (e.g., anger). The appraisal variables particularly point to the importance of the annotator's familiarity with the argument.
