By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – According to news reporting based on a preprint abstract, our journalists obtained the following quote sourced from os f.io: “Since robots trigger social reactions as social interaction partners but are le ss socially complex and intimidating, they may offer a promising way to train yo ung adults’ social skills and improve their social confidence. Since social robo ts can take over different roles and display different behaviors, two questions arise: Should the robot take over the role of a coach (higher expertise, higher hierarchical level) or a training partner (equal expertise, equal hierarchical l evel)? Is the training style more appreciated when it is challenging (focusing o n shortcomings that can be improved) or encouraging (focusing on successes that should be strengthened)? These two aspects are examined in an online study with 2x2 between-subjects design where participants get to interact with a virtual ro bot taking over the different training roles and styles.
