goals. We also see that if the personality tends to be more neurotic, then the deliberative
model is even better than the reactive one, since actions effects are increased, and drives
increase more acutely. When the agent is open minded, it is more likely to choose using
new objects to satisfy its curiosity, so that the resulting valence values are higher than in
the other cases. When it has a meticulous personality, we can see that actions decrease
drives values faster. Therefore, the agent needs less actions for its needs, and we can
see that the resulting values are lower.
Figures 9 and 10 show the end value of the (

) for each problem. In all
cases, the value obtained by the proposed deliberative model is significantly lower than
the reactive one. This is because, once again, the deliberative agent quickly reaches the
goals to meet its other needs. For instance, it saves repeated travels to buy items in the
store by buying several items in the store when it goes there. So, it buys extra items,
