With the aim of designing a culture-sensitive dialogue system, we designed a user study creating a dialogue in a domain that has the potential capacity to reveal cultural differences. The dialogue contains different options for the system output according to cultural differences. We conducted a survey among Germans and Japanese to investigate whether the supposed differences may be applied in human-computer interaction. Our results show that there are indeed differences, but not all results are consistent with the cultural models.application/pdfeng© ACL, Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License.Interacció persona-ordinadorinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
