title = "How Personality Influences Users{\textquoteright} Needs for Recommendation Diversity?",
abstract = "The existing approaches for enhancing diversity in online recommendations neglect the user{\textquoteright}s spontaneous needs that might be potentially influenced by her/his personality. In this paper, we report our ongoing research on exploring the actual impact of personality values on users{\textquoteright} needs for recommendation diversity. The results from a preliminary user survey are reported, that show the significantly causal relationship from personality factors (such as conscientiousness) to the users{\textquoteright} diversity preference (not only over the item{\textquoteright}s individual attributes but also on all attributes when they are combined). We further present our plan for the follow-up work and discuss its practical implications.",
