Interaction Pattern

A Interaction Pattern is a behavioral pattern that structures reciprocal exchanges between interactive agents through systematic organization of communicative turns and response sequences.

• AKA: Interactive Pattern, Exchange Pattern, Interactional Structure.
• Context:
  • It can typically organize Turn-Taking through interaction pattern sequencing rules and interaction pattern transition points.
  • It can typically coordinate Participant Roles through interaction pattern speaker-listener dynamics and interaction pattern contribution structure.
  • It can typically establish Interaction Rhythm through interaction pattern timing mechanisms and interaction pattern pacing control.
  • It can typically maintain Coherence through interaction pattern topical continuity and interaction pattern relevance principles.
  • It can typically achieve Communicative Goals through interaction pattern purpose alignment and interaction pattern outcome orientation.
  • ...
  • It can often adapt to Context Changes through interaction pattern flexibility and interaction pattern adjustment mechanisms.
  • It can often reflect Social Norms through interaction pattern politeness conventions and interaction pattern formality levels.
  • It can often enable Collaborative Activity through interaction pattern coordination mechanisms and interaction pattern joint action.
  • It can often evolve through Interaction History via interaction pattern learning and interaction pattern adaptation.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Symmetrical Interaction Pattern to being an Asymmetrical Interaction Pattern, depending on its interaction pattern power distribution.
  • It can range from being a Cooperative Interaction Pattern to being a Competitive Interaction Pattern, depending on its interaction pattern goal alignment.
  • It can range from being a Scripted Interaction Pattern to being an Emergent Interaction Pattern, depending on its interaction pattern predictability.
  • It can range from being a Dyadic Interaction Pattern to being a Multi-Party Interaction Pattern, depending on its interaction pattern participant count.
  • ...
  • It can enable Dialog Systems through interaction pattern conversational structure.
  • It can support Inquisitive Dialogue Patterns through interaction pattern questioning sequences.
  • It can implement Request-Response Communication Patterns through interaction pattern exchange pairs.
  • It can facilitate Verbal Conversations through interaction pattern discourse organization.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • Conversational Interaction Patterns, such as:
    • Adjacency Pair Pattern for question-answer contexts.
    • Greeting-Farewell Pattern for conversation boundary contexts.
    • Repair Sequence Pattern for misunderstanding resolution contexts.
  • Dialogue Interaction Patterns, such as:
    • Inquisitive Dialogue Pattern for question-driven interaction contexts.
    • Declarative Dialogue Pattern for statement-based interaction contexts.
    • Narrative Dialogue Pattern for story-based interaction contexts.
    • Instructional Dialogue Pattern for teaching interaction contexts.
  • Institutional Interaction Patterns, such as:
    • Interview Interaction Pattern for information gathering contexts.
    • Classroom Interaction Pattern for educational exchange contexts.
    • Medical Consultation Pattern for diagnostic interaction contexts.
  • Digital Interaction Patterns, such as:
    • Chat Interface Pattern for text-based exchange contexts.
    • Voice Assistant Pattern for spoken command contexts.
    • API Interaction Pattern for system communication contexts.
  • Game Interaction Patterns, such as:
    • Turn-Based Game Pattern for sequential play contexts.
    • Real-Time Interaction Pattern for simultaneous action contexts.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Monologue, which lacks interaction pattern reciprocity.
  • Random Response, which lacks interaction pattern coherence.
  • Communication Breakdown, which represents interaction pattern failure.
  • Parallel Talk, which lacks interaction pattern engagement.
