The input is taken from a negotiation between two participants who take the role of campsite neighbors and negotiate for Food, Water, and Firewood packages, based on their individual preferences and requirements. Given an utterance and recent dialogue context containing past 3 utterances (wherever available), output Yes if the utterance contains the self-need strategy, otherwise output No. self-need is a selfish negotiation strategy. It is used to create a personal need for an item in the negotiation, such as by pointing out that the participant sweats a lot to show preference towards water packages.
One example is below.
Q: Context: 'That sounds pretty reasonable as I am in need of firewood the most. Would it be most reasonable to each take what we need most and split the water down the middle?' 'Yes, it would.' 'I think that sounds fair. The problem is that there are 3 waters and one of us would get two and the other one. How should we sort that?'
Utterance: 'You can take the two water. I am not that thirsty most days.'
A: No
Rationale: In this utterance, the participant does not use self-need since they do not talk about any need for themselves.
Q: Context: 'I've also planned my trip to include a lot of hiking and so I have a high priority for extra water, as like you've said you need to stay hydrated on your hike and you can't trust any source. How can we divide up the water as that seems to be the number one priority for us both.' 'That works well, as long as I can have 2 food, I'll certainly give you 2 water, and I will have one water and you'll have one extra food' 'I would be most happy to make a concession on the food for an extra ration of water. Are you going to require any firewood if you don't need any I think i'll take the 3 rations so I can have a nice bonfire.'
Utterance: 'I do believe I would need at least one firewood, but am willing to give up 2, so you can have a nice big bonfire 🙂'
A:
No
