(2006) : BIRON, what's the topic? A Multi-Modal Topic Tracker for improved Human-Robot Interaction: ROMAN 2006 - The 15th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication: ROMAN 2006 - The 15th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human: Hatfield, UK: IEEE, S. 26-32
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/ROMAN.2006.314390 Abstract: Creating robots with extendable social skills and interaction capabilities that suffice their operation in the real world with naive users is a very challenging task. In this paper we present a new approach using topic tracking on multi-modal dialogue to provide a mobile robot with a higher level situation awareness in human-robot interaction. The robot is no longer operating in laboratory surroundings, but in its own real world flat. We describe how our topic tracking approach is implemented in this integrated system, operating on verbal speech input. Different modalities like data from video cameras and laser scans are used as additional cues to a semantic understanding and grouping of user utterances into different topics. Both the amount of topics and the according topic names are created dynamically. Evaluating an offline speech corpus demonstrates the suitability of our approach. It is now possible to ask "BIRON, what's the topic?", making the interaction more social

(2006): The influence of emotion recognition and emotion regulation on intercultural adjustment. In: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTERCULTURAL RELATIONS 30 (3), S. 345-363. DOI: 10.1016/j.ijintrel.2005.08.006
Abstract: Previous studies have consistently shown emotion regulation to be an important predictor of intercultural adjustment. Emotional intelligence theory suggests that before people can regulate emotions they need to recognize them; thus emotion recognition ability should also predict intercultural adjustment. The present study tested this hypothesis in international students at three times during the school year. Recognition of anger and emotion regulation predicted positive adjustment; recognition of contempt, fear and sadness predicted negative adjustment. Emotion regulation did not mediate the relationship between emotion recognition and adjustment, and recognition and regulation jointly predicted adjustment. These results suggest recognition of specific emotions may have special functions in intercultural adjustment, and that emotion recognition and emotion regulation play independent roles in adjustment.

(2005): Appreciation. Individual differences in finding value and meaning as a unique predictor of subjective well-being. In: Journal of personality 73 (1), S. 79-114. DOI: 10.1111/j.1467-6494.2004.00305.x
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15660674 Abstract: Adler (2002; Adler & Fagley, 2001) argued that being appreciative facilitates and enhances feelings of well-being and life satisfaction, as well as feelings of connection to what we have, to what we experience, and to life itself. In addition, expressing appreciation to others is believed to build social bonds. Although appreciation is viewed as a disposition, it is also viewed as something people can learn over time, making it an especially valuable construct to measure. Appreciating something (e.g. an event, a person, a behavior, an object) involves noticing and acknowledging its value and meaning and feeling a positive emotional connection to it. We defined eight aspects of appreciation and developed scales to measure them: a focus on what one has ("Have" Focus), Awe, Ritual, Present Moment, Self/Social Comparison, Gratitude, Loss/Adversity, Interpersonal. Scores on the subscales may be totaled to yield a score representing one's overall degree of appreciation (or level of appreciativeness) (coefficient alpha=.94). We also developed an 18-item short form (coefficient alpha=.91) that correlates .95 with scores on the long form. The scales correlated in predicted ways with measures of life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect. More importantly, appreciation was significantly related to life satisfaction and positive affect, even after the effects of optimism, spirituality, and emotional self-awareness had been statistically controlled.

(2005): Konturen der Höflichkeit. Handlung-Haltung-Ethos-Theologie. Versuch einer Rehabilitation. 1. Aufl.. Norderstedt: Books on Demand
Abstract: Pater Andreas Alkofer, vielen noch bekannt aus seiner Zeit im Kloster St. Felix, hat über das Thema "Konturen der Höflichkeit" habilitiert. Seine Studie sucht, einer verdächtigen und verdächtigten Sekundärtugend auf die Spur zu kommen. Höflichkeit ist in Zeiten des Authentizitätskults nicht besonders "en vogue", bekommt aber in den letzten Jahren deutlich publizistischen Schub, bezeichnenderweise nicht in und aus der Theologie. Gerade deshalb ist ein Blick über kursierende Vorurteile (bloß konventionell, bloß restriktiv, bloß formal etc.) hinaus erhellend. Es geht privat- wie gesellschaftspolitisch um ein brisantes Thema: den zivilen Umgang mit anderen, die fremd sind und oft genug bleiben, um die Bewahrung und kommunikative Herstellung von Würde, Takt, Diskretion und Respekt schon in minimalen - gar marginalen? - alltäglichen Bezügen. Aber weder formal noch situativ ist das Themenfeld hinreichend beschrieben. Im Rekurs auf die Implikationen der höfisch-ritterlichen Kultur (als die Stichwortgeberin), auf die schillernde Tradition literarischer Moralistik, auf sozio- und pragmalinguistische Höflichkeitsforschung werden die pazifizierenden, humanisierenden und emanzipativen Grundintentionen eines Regel- und Erfahrungsinventars beleuchtet, was letztlich in Konspiration steht der ethisch grundlegenden Realisation der Würde des Menschen. Dabei wird Ausschau gehalten nach Facetten und Elementen theologischer und spiritueller Traditionen, um die Höflichkeitsthematik in den theologisch-ethischen Diskurs zu reintegrieren. Anders gesagt: "Was tut ihr, wenn ihr nur die Euren grüßt ...?" (Mt 5,47).

(2005) : Face Recognition for Social Interaction with a Personal Robotic Assistant: EUROCON 2005 - The International Conference on "Computer as a Tool": EUROCON 2005 - The International Conference on "Computer as a Tool": Piscataway NJ: IEEE Operations Center, S. 382-385
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/EURCON.2005.1629942 Abstract: This paper describes the main characteristics of a "social interactive" robot for which social human-robot interaction is important. The main goal of this work is the development of a robotic assistant (called SIRA) for elderly which serves several primary functions such us telepresence, tele-medicine, intelligent reminding, safeguarding, mobility assistance and social interaction. We focus our attention in to equip an intelligent robot assistant with a robust user-machine interface, which enable this robot to communicate, interact, and collaborate with human users in a natural and intuitive way. The social interaction module developed is commented and finally, an application of the social interaction is explained

(2005): Distinctions between emotion and mood. In: Cognition and Emotion 19 (6), S. 847-878. DOI: 10.1080/02699930541000057
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1080/02699930541000057 Abstract: Most academics agree that emotions and moods are related but distinct phenomena. The present study assessed emotion-mood distinctions among a non-academic population and compared these views with distinctions proposed in the literature. Content analysis of responses from 106 participants identified 16 themes, with cause (65% of respondents), duration (40%), control (25%), experience (15%), and consequences (14%) the most frequently cited distinctions. Among 65 contributions to the academic literature, eight themes were proposed, with duration (62% of authors), intentionality (41%), cause (31percnt;), consequences (31%), and function (18%) the most frequently cited. When the eight themes cited by both academics and non-academics were rank ordered, approximately 60% overlap in opinion was evident. A data-derived summary of emotion-mood distinctions is provided. These data should prove useful to investigators interested in developing a clearer scientific distinction between emotion and mood than is currently available.

(2005): Nonlinearity, chaos, and complexity. The dynamics of natural and social systems. Oxford; New York: Oxford University Press. Online verfügbar unter http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=177022
Abstract: Covering a broad range of topics, this text provides a comprehensive survey of the modelling of chaotic dynamics and complexity in the natural and social sciences. Its attention to models in both the physical and social sciences and the detailed philosophical approach make this an unique text in the midst of many current books on chaos and complexity. Part 1 deals with the mathematical model as an instrument of investigation. The general meaning of modelling and, more specifically, questions concerning linear modelling are discussed. Part 2 deals with the theme of chaos and the origin of chaotic dynamics. Part 3 deals with the theme of complexity: a property of the systems and of their models which is intermediate between stability and chaos. Including an extensive index and bibliography along with numerous examples and simplified models, this is an ideal course text.

(2005): Wie beeinflussen Routinen das Entscheidungsverhalten?. In: Psychologische Rundschau 56 (4), S. 261-270. DOI: 10.1026/0033-3042.56.4.261
Abstract: Es wird ein Überblick über neuere Untersuchungen gegeben, die sich mit dem Einfluss von Routinen auf Entscheidungen befassen. Es zeigt sich, dass Routinen systematisch die Generierung von Alternativen, die Informationssuche, die Bewertung, die Wahl und schließlich die Implementierung des gewählten Verhaltens beeinflussen. Mit Blick auf die Befunde wird ein breites Rahmenmodell empfohlen, das das Lernen von Routinen als integralen Bestandteil von Entscheidung versteht. zitiert von 40

(2005): Signaling Theory, Strategic Interaction, and Symbolic Capital. In: Current Anthropology 46 (2), S. 221-248. DOI: 10.1086/427115
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1086/427115 Abstract: Signaling theory provides an opportunity to integrate an interactive theory of symbolic communication and social benefit with materialist theories of individual strategic action and adaptation. This article examines the potential explanatory value of signaling theory for a variety of anthropological topics, focusing on three social arenas in which signaling might plausibly be important: unconditional generosity, "wasteful" subsistence behavior, and artistic or craft traditions. In each case, it outlines the ways in which the phenomena correspond with the expectations of signaling theory by showing how a given pattern of action might signal particular hidden attributes, provide benefits to both signaler and observers, and meet the conditions for honest communication. The ethnographic evidence suggests that the fundamental conditions for reliable signaling of condition-dependent qualities may exist in many social domains. It appears that signaling theory has considerable promise for generating novel and powerful insights into the ethnographic realm.

(2005): Al-Qaeda’s operational evolution: Behavioral and organizational perspectives. In: BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES 23 (4), S. 467-483
Abstract: Al-Qaeda is widely regarded by the military, law enforcement, diplomatic, and intelligence communities as being the foremost threat to U.S. national security and safety. The nature of this threat, however, has changed since al-Qaeda first emerged in the late 1980s. This article describes the emergence of a new form of transnational terrorism and details al-Qaeda's progression from being an organization to an ideological movement. Drawing on a theory of social movements, we analyze its trajectory and the levels of influence. We also offer a behavioral perspective in explaining how al-Qaeda has adapted as a learning organization with new leadership, tactics, and patterns of recruitment and training.

(2005): Language and symbolic power. Reprint. Cambridge u.a.: Polity Press
Abstract: This volume brings together Bourdieu's highly original writings on language and on the relations between language, power and politics. Bourdieu develops a forceful critique of traditional approaches to language, including the linguistic theories of Saussure and Chomsky and the theory of speech-acts elaborated by Austin and others. He argues that language should be viewed not only as a means of communication but also as a medium of power through which individuals pursue their interests and display their practical competence. Drawing on the concepts which are part of his distinctive theoretical approach, Bourdieu maintains that linguistic utterances or expressions can be understood as the product of the relation between a 'linguistic market' and a 'linguistic habitus'. When individuals produce linguistic expressions, they deploy accumulated resources and they implicitly adapt their expressions to the demands of the social field or market. Hence every linguistic interaction, however personal and insignificant they may seem, bears the traces of the social structure that it both expresses and helps to reproduce. Boudieu's account sheds fresh light on the ways in which linguistic usage varies according to considerations such as class and gender. It also opens up a new approach to the ways in which language is used in the domain of politics. For politics is, among other things, the site par excellence in which words are deeds and the symbolic character of power is at stake. This volume, by one of the leading social thinkers in the world today, represents a major contribution to the study of language and power. It will be of interest to students throughout the social sciences and humanities, especially in sociology, politics, anthropology, linguistics and literature.

(2005): The Relationship Between Perceived Violation of Social Norms and Social Control. Situational Factors Influencing the Reaction to Deviance. In: Journal of Applied Social Psychology 35 (7), S. 1519-1539. DOI: 10.1111/j.1559-1816.2005.tb02182.x
Abstract: Social control is the generic term for all reactions through which people express their disapproval to someone who engages in a counter-normative behavior or who holds a counter-normative attitude. The literature on helping behavior suggests that perceived personal implication should play an important role in the decision of whether or not to exert social control. A field study with a total of 898 participants involving 5 different experimental settings was conducted in order to test this hypothesis. Confederates engaged in a variety of behaviors that violated social norms. Perceived personal implication was consistently the best predictor of social control behavior, such that the more someone felt that a deviant behavior affected him or her personally, the more he or she was likely to communicate his or her disapproval to the deviant confederate. Perceived deviance of the behavior was a less powerful predictor of social control. The findings support the role of moderating factors in social control behavior and stress the relevance of the circumstances under which social norms protecting public property are likely to be perpetuated. zitiert von 91

(2005) : Robot emotion: A functional perspective In: Fellous, Jean-Marc; Arbib, Michael A. (Hg.): Who Needs Emotions?: Oxford, England: Oxford University Press, S. 271-310
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780195166194.003.0010 Abstract: Robots are becoming more and more ubiquitous in human environments. The time has come when their ability to intelligently and effectively interact with us needs to match the level of technological sophistication they have already achieved, whether these robots are tools, avatars (human surrogates), partners (as in a team) or cyborg extensions (prostheses). Emotion-inspired mechanisms can improve the way autonomous robots operate in a human environment with people, and can improve the ability of these robots to effectively achieve their own goals. Such goals may be related to accomplishing tasks or satisfying motivations, and they may be achieved either autonomously or in cooperation with a person. In order to do this in a way that is natural for humans, the robot needs to be designed with a social model in mind. We illustrate this concept by describing in detail the design of Kismet, an anthropomorphic robot that interacts with a human in a social way, focusing on its facial and vocal expressions and gaze direction. Kismet’s architecture includes a cognitive system that is tightly coupled to a separate emotive system. Each is designed as interacting networks of ’specialists’ that are activated when specific conditions are met. The cognitive component is responsible for perceiving and interpreting events, and for selecting among a hierarchy of goal-achieving behaviors, in accordance with its current motivational drives. It is primarily concerned with homeostasis and ’well being.’ The emotive system implements eight basic emotions that are proposed to exist across species. It detects those internal and external events that have affective value, and motivates either task-based or communicative behavior to pursue beneficial interactions and to avoid those that are not beneficial by modulating the operation of the cognitive component. When placed in a realistic social setting, these two systems interact to achieve lifelike attention bias, flexible decision making, goal prioritization and persistence, and effective communication where the robot interacts in a natural and intuitive way with the person to achieve its goal (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)

(2005): Polite, well-dressed and on time. Secondary school conduct codes and the production of docile citizens. In: CANADIAN REVIEW OF SOCIOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY-REVUE CANADIENNE DE SOCIOLOGIE ET D ANTHROPOLOGIE 42 (1), S. 71-91
Abstract: This paper examines Ontario's Safe Schools Act (2000), and the codes of conduct of school boards and high schools in the Niagara and Toronto regions. I investigate how these codes are organized, justified and presented to students and, in the process, what kind of students (and adolescents) are assumed and created, particularly in terms of citizens and future workers. Codes of conduct are sites of knowledge production, fashioning middle-class, normative, gendered citizens, and marginalizing those who do not easily conform. These codes also suggest a government of young people through their capacity to act and consequent self-regulation, alongside more "top-down" techniques.

(2005): Ethical leadership: A social learning perspective for construct development and testing. In: Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes 97 (2), S. 117-134. DOI: 10.1016/j.obhdp.2005.03.002
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.obhdp.2005.03.002 Abstract: Leaders should be a key source of ethical guidance for employees. Yet, little empirical research focuses on an ethical dimension of leadership. We propose social learning theory as a theoretical basis for understanding ethical leadership and offer a constitutive definition of the ethical leadership construct. In seven interlocking studies, we investigate the viability and importance of this construct. We develop and test a new instrument to measure ethical leadership, examine the proposed connections of ethical leadership with other constructs in a nomological network, and demonstrate its predictive validity for important employee outcomes. Specifically, ethical leadership is related to consideration behavior, honesty, trust in the leader, interactional fairness, socialized charismatic leadership (as measured by the idealized influence dimension of transformational leadership), and abusive supervision, but is not subsumed by any of these. Finally, ethical leadership predicts outcomes such as perceived effectiveness of leaders, followers' job satisfaction and dedication, and their willingness to report problems to management.
