Explanation

shouldEndSession is a parameter in the Response object that tells Alexa whether or not to keep the session open. True means that the session should end after Alexa speaks the response, and false that the session should remain active. If not provided, it defaults to true. Session attributes are not required when using a dialog model because the user's responses are sent to the skill in the intent's slot values.
