Recently, autonomous agents with emotional behavior are developed to improve the human-agent interaction. Users’ perceived “believability” of autonomous agents is considered to affect interactions with agents. While human-like emotional behavior is considered to increase believability, actual emotional behaviors differ across cultures. Therefore culture-specific emotional behaviors of agent might increase believability. In this paper, two kinds of emotional behaviors specific in Japanese culture, namely amae and Japanese way of agency appraisal, were implemented in agents. Influences of these behaviors on believability were investigated experimentally. Results showed that both Japanese behaviors increased believability. Especially amae increased personality factor, which is one of the factors of believability.
