Abstract(in English) Life-like agents have the potential to make e-shopping sites more persuasive and attractive. We discuss here the influence of the number of persuasive agents. We use the "desert survival problem" to measure the performance of persuasion. Agents recommend an item for surviving in a desert and a user selects an item. Two experiments show that the persuasiveness of multiple agents depends on the relationship between the agents and the user. When the relationship is negative, persuasiveness degrades as the number of agents increases.
