听觉具身化对话代理：空间化和情境音频线索对沉浸感和社会感知的影响
Auditorily Embodied Conversational Agents: Effects of Spatialization and Situated Audio Cues on Presence and Social Perception
AI总结：
本研究探讨了通过空间化音频和情境声音线索提升对话代理沉浸感和社交感知的方法，发现空间化和 Foley 增强共在感但降低对代理注意力的感知。
摘要：
具身化可以增强对话代理，例如增加其感知的沉浸感。这通常是通过虚拟身体的视觉表示实现的；然而，视觉模态并不总是可用，例如当用户通过耳机与代理互动或使用无显示屏眼镜时。在本工作中，我们探索了听觉具身化。通过引入身体存在性的听觉线索——通过空间定位的语音和来自环境互动的情境 Foley 音频——我们研究了仅通过音频如何传达具身性并影响对话代理的感知。我们进行了一项2（空间化：单耳 vs. 空间化）x 2（Foley：无 vs. Foley）的受试者内研究，参与者（n=24）与代理进行对话。我们的结果表明，空间化和 Foley 增加了共在感，但减少了用户对代理注意力和其他社交属性的感知。
英文摘要：
Embodiment can enhance conversational agents, such as increasing their perceived presence. This is typically achieved through visual representations of a virtual body; however, visual modalities are not always available, such as when users interact with agents using headphones or display-less glasses. In this work, we explore auditory embodiment. By introducing auditory cues of bodily presence - through spatially localized voice and situated Foley audio from environmental interactions - we investigate how audio alone can convey embodiment and influence perceptions of a conversational agent. We conducted a 2 (spatialization: monaural vs. spatialized) x 2 (Foley: none vs. Foley) within-subjects study, where participants (n=24) engaged in conversations with agents. Our results show that spatialization and Foley increase co-presence, but reduce users' perceptions of the agent's attention and other social attributes.
