Scoring Tests
Customers Mood Change
Evaluate agent's ability to improve or maintain customer mood during conversations.
What it measures
This score tracks whether the customer's mood improves or worsens during the conversation. It looks at the emotional "trajectory" (neutral → positive, positive → negative, etc.) and whether the agent successfully recovers after frustration.
What "good" looks like
- Customer stays neutral-to-positive.
- If frustration appears, the agent recovers it quickly.
- Conversation ends with satisfaction or calm clarity.
Common reasons for lower scores
- The agent ignores confusion or frustration.
- The customer repeats themselves or becomes annoyed.
- The conversation ends negatively.
Examples
High (9–10): "Customer starts neutral, ends happy ('Perfect, thanks!'). Any frustration is resolved quickly."
Mid (6–7): "Customer mood is mixed; they don't get upset, but also don't end clearly happy."
Low (1–3): "Customer becomes frustrated/angry and stays that way, or leaves the conversation upset."
