PERSONALIZATION IN INTERACTIVE SYSTEMS - The Generation of Compliance?

Stephen Sobol

2006

Abstract

This paper examines applications of personalization in interactive systems and seeks to map success in this area into a general theory of database and narrative. It is argued that conventions of human communication established well before the digital age play a large part in determining user responses to personalization. The analysis offers a logic to help determine when to apply personalization. The results of an experiment to detect personalization effects are reported which provide evidence of the value of personalization.
