effects of lack in transparency on the perceived pleasantness of the conversation in
addition to perceived human likeness and affinity for the conversational agent. Second, we
conducted an exploratory analysis of qualitative participant reports on these
conversations. We did not find that a lack in transparency negatively affected user
experience, but we identified three factors important to participants’ assessments. The
findings are of theoretical and practical significance and motivate future research.
