Affective negotiation support systems

In traditional learning, teachers can easily get an insight into how their students work and learn and how they interact in the classroom. However, in online learning, it is more difficult for teachers to see how individual students behave. With the enormous growing of e-learning platforms, as complementary or even primary tool to support learning in organizations, monitoring students' success factors becomes a crucial issue. In this paper we focus on the importance of stress in the learning process. Stress detection in an E-learning environment is an important and crucial factor to success. Estimating, in a non-invasive way, the students' levels of stress, and taking measures to deal with it, is then the goal of this paper. Moodle, by being one of the most used e-learning platforms is used to test the log tool referred in this work.

“…Alternatively, Broekens et al (2010) suggested an "affective" eNS that is designed to aid negotiators in managing their own emotions, comprehending and reacting to the emotions expressed by their counterpart adequately, and guiding negotiators in using emotions strategically. The authors also suggest affective support tailored to different negotiation phases.…”

The book series, Advances in Group Decision and Negotiation-as an extension of the journal, Group Decision and Negotiation-is motivated by unifying approaches to group decision and negotiation processes. These processes are purposeful, adaptive, and complex-cybernetic and self-organizing-and involve relation and coordination in multiplayer, multicriteria, ill-structured, evolving dynamic problems in which players (agents) both cooperate and conflict. These processes are purposeful complex adaptive systems.Group decision and negotiation involves the whole process or flow of activities relevant to group decision and negotiation-such as communication and information sharing, problem definition (representation) and evolution, alternative generation, social-emotional interaction, coordination, leadership, and the resulting action choice.Areas of application include intra-organizational coordination (as in local/global strategy, operations management and integrated design, production, finance, marketing, and distribution-e.g., as for new products), computer-supported collaborative work, labor-management negotiation, inter-organizational negotiation (business, government, and nonprofits), electronic negotiation and commerce, mobile technology, culture and negotiation, inter-cultural and international relations and negotiation, globalization, terrorism, and environmental negotiation.More information about this series at
