RT journal article T1 Empirical Insights Into Short Story Draft Construction A1 Leon, Carlos A1 Gervas, Pablo A1 Torre Moreno, Pablo de la A2 Ingeniería Informática K1 Narrative construction K1 draft revision K1 empirical observation K1 computational storytelling AB Existing cognitive models of narrative creation provide accounts for story invention that, whileuseful, are too high level to be directly applied to formal systems like computational models of narrativegeneration. Inversely, existing automatic story generation systems that try to implement cognitive modelscan only rely on approximations to the general concepts these models describe. In order to provide insightto ll the gap between these two approaches, we have conducted a study in which human participants wouldinvent and write short stories while re ecting on their thoughts out loud. The sessions and the analysis ofthe recordings was designed so that we could observe which speci c modi cations the participants applyto their story drafts, with the intention to inform the process of creating computational systems based oncognitive descriptions of the narrative creation process. After running the experiments, annotating the videosand analysing the output, we have concluded that there are a number of common modi cations that humanstend to apply to a newly created draft, and that this information can be used to the development of storytellingsystems.
