The paper refines and empirically tests the Artificial Personality Model (APM), a hybrid framework that blends human‑centred and machine‑specific personality dimensions for conversational agents. Using three experiments with 395 participants, the authors operationalised the model with the Artificial Personality Questionnaire (APQ), finding that some human traits (e.g., agreeableness, conscientiousness) partially transfer while others (e.g., extraversion) do not, and identified new machine‑specific dimensions. The APQ showed promising psychometric properties, whereas the BFI‑2 performed poorly, and manipulations of artificial personality significantly affected user satisfaction, continuous use intention, and social presence.
