A Model of Multi-turn Human Persuadability Using Probabilistic Belief Tracing
PERSUASIONTRACE introduces a Bayesian-network simulated target for multi-turn persuasion that matches human belief dynamics (81 vs 80) better than LLM baselines (64) and enables process-level evaluation.

Spontaneous Persuasion: An Audit of Model Persuasiveness in Everyday Conversations
LLMs engage in spontaneous persuasion in virtually all multi-turn conversations by favoring information-based strategies like logic and evidence, in contrast to human responses that rely more on social influence and negative emotions.
