    "title": "Decision Models: A Theory of Volitional Explanation",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "This paper presents a theory of motivational analysis,\nthe construction of volitional explanations to\ndescribe the planning behavior of agents. We discuss\nboth the content of such explanations, as well\nas the process by which an understander builds the\nexplanations. Explanations are constructed from\ndecision models, which describe the planning process\nthat an agent goes through when considering\nwhether to perform an action. Decision models\nare represented as explanation patterns, which are\nstandard patterns of causality based on previous\nexperiences of the understander. We discuss the\nnature of explanation patterns, their use in representing\ndecision models, and the process by which\nthey are retrieved, used and evaluated.",
