Through in-depth interviews with 45 participants across Generations X, Millennials (Y), and Z, this research identifies key design elements that enhance avatar design. Findings indicate that the spatial dimension of avatars, including variations in shape, significantly contributes to form realism. Additionally, behavioral elements such as communication modalities, competence, empathy, and dynamic interactions enhance behavioral realism. Also, we find significant differences in the cognitive, affective, and behavioral responses to avatar interaction across generations. These interactive responses are also influenced by contingency factors such as inter-avatar dynamics, media channel preferences (mobile versus fixed devices), and privacy risk.

This study examines whether and how anthropomorphic designs, or human-like design features, can reduce users' negative emotions, increase trust, and subsequently enhance user satisfaction with such reporting systems. In a between-subjects experiment with 286 participants, individuals were exposed to an online sexual harassment scenario as a victim-survivor and instructed to report the incident. They were assigned to one of three reporting conditions: a non-anthropomorphic design condition (a machine-like system with an interface which has no human-like attributes), a low anthropomorphic design condition (a basic chatbot system, with an interface which has a low level of human attributes), and a high anthropomorphic design condition (a chatbot system with a high level of human attributes). Results indicated that both high and low anthropomorphic designs increased perceived anthropomorphism which significantly improved user satisfaction compared to non-anthropomorphic designs by reducing negative emotions and increasing trust, and that high anthropomorphic designs led to the highest levels of overall user satisfaction. This study contributes to the literature by advancing the understanding of anthropomorphic design's impact on user interaction in the specific context of reporting systems for online sexual harassment. Additionally, it provides practical design recommendations for social media platforms to implement more empathetic and supportive reporting systems, ultimately enhancing user satisfaction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48471,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Human Behavior","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 108733"},"PeriodicalIF":9.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144289161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, positive viewpoints were more effective in causing this change than neutral ones. The dominant mindset type within a community significantly shapes the public opinion environment. Additionally, individuals’ emotional tendencies towards a topic showed a moderate positive correlation with the number of positive arguments and a moderate negative correlation with the number of negative arguments.

Several conditions facilitated the emergence of novel criteria: encounters with diverse sources (especially low-quality ones), metacognitive elaboration of the meaning of criteria, and social interactions that encouraged attention to source quality.
