Does a Smile Matter if the Person Is Not Real?: The Effect of a Smile and Stock Photos on Persona Perceptions by Joni Salminen (7434770)

“…The results from structural equation modeling, supplemented by a qualitative analysis, show that a smile enhances the perceived similarity with the persona, similar personas are more liked, and that likability increases the willingness to use a persona. In contrast, the use of stock photos decreases the perceived similarity with the persona as well as persona credibility, both of which are significant predictors to a willingness to use a persona. …”

On the Performance of the Node Control Volume Finite Element Method for Modeling Multi-phase Fluid Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media by Abdul Salam Abd (14151648)
