Abstract
Moral emotions play an important role in the design and implementation of virtual agents, since they have implications not only for the agent’s deliberation process but also for its interactional and social functions. In this paper, we propose an empirical methodology that leverages narrative situations to evaluate the emotional state felt by an intelligent agent.
