--- abstract: 'It is argued that society is a crucial factor in the construction of individual intelligence. In other words that it is important that intelligence is socially situated in an analogous way to the physical situation of robots. Evidence that this may be the case is taken from developmental linguistics, the social intelligence hypothesis, the complexity of society, the need for self-reflection and autism. The consequences for the development of artificial social agents is briefly considered. Finally some challenges for research into socially situated intelligence are highlighted.' altloc: - http://www.cpm.mmu.ac.uk/cpmrep42.html chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: August conference: Workshop on Socially Situated Intelligence at SAB'98 confloc: Zurich contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Edmonds given: Bruce honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Dautenhahn given: Kerstin honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 1998 date_type: published datestamp: 1999-04-01 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/08/02 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: [] eprint_status: archive eprintid: 802 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_postscript.png;/802/1/edmondsA4.ps|/style/images/fileicons/application_pdf.png;/802/5/edmonds.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: unpub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: ~ lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:54:17 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: ~ pagerange: ~ pubdom: FALSE publication: ~ publisher: ~ refereed: FALSE referencetext: ~ relation_type: [] relation_uri: [] reportno: ~ rev_number: 14 series: ~ source: ~ status_changed: 2007-09-12 16:34:32 subjects: - bio-socio - cog-psy - comp-sci-art-intel - comp-sci-complex-theory - comp-sci-robot - ling-prag - phil-mind - soc-psy succeeds: ~ suggestions: ~ sword_depositor: ~ sword_slug: ~ thesistype: ~ title: The Contribution of Society to the Construction of Individual Intelligence type: confpaper userid: 192 volume: ~
