The architectural basis of affective states and processes

Sloman, Aaron and Chrisley, Ron and Scheutz, Matthias

This chapter examines the architectural basis of affective states and processes in robots. It shows how ‘architecture-based’ concepts can extend and refine folk-psychology concepts in ways that make them more useful both for expressing scientific questions and theories, and for specifying engineering objectives. It recommends the CogAff schema as a generic framework that distinguishes the types of components there may be in an architecture, operating concurrently with different functional roles.
