This paper presents a logical account of the fulfilment and violation of social expectations modelled as conditional rules over a hybrid linear propositional temporal logic. Our semantics captures the intuition that the fulfilment or violation of an expectation must be determined without recourse to information from later states. We define a means of updating expectations from one state to the next based on formula progression, and show how conformance checking was implemented by extending the MCLITE and MCFULL algorithms of the Hybrid Logics Model Checker. %@ 978-3-642-00442-1
