Social identity models for automated entity interactions

A computer-implemented method for simulating intelligent behavior, the method comprising:

• determining, by at least one processor, one or more social interactive goals (SIGs) for an automated entity during a social interaction between the automated entity and a selected entity based on a social identity target state and a perceived identity state;
• determining, by the at least one processor, a set of behavioral actions for the automated entity based on the determined one or more SIGs and an interaction strategy associated with a plurality of Cultural Interaction Protocols (CIPs) that affect the social interaction by causing the automated entity to interact with the selected entity with a culturally influenced behavior exchange;
• and
• altering paralanguage elements expressed for the automated entity via a user interface based on the determined set of behavioral actions, wherein the automated entity emulates human social behaviors.
