By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators discuss new findings in robotics. According to news reporting from Sun Yat-Sen University by NewsRx jour nalists, research stated, "Industrial robots are of great significance to the lo ng-term development of family firms. Drawing on the lens of the principal-princi pal conflict, this paper aims to investigate the influence of family non-executi ve directors on robot adoption in Chinese family firms." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Sun Yat-Sen University: "This paper selects the family firms in China from 2011 to 2019 as the sample. Furthermore, the authors manually collected the family non-executive directors a nd constructed the robot adoption variable utilizing data sourced from the Inter national Federation of Robotics. In brief, this paper constructs a comprehensive framework of the mechanisms and additional tests pertaining to the influence of family non-executive directors on robot adoption. This paper finds that family non-executive directors can promote robot adoption in family firms. The underlyi ng mechanism analysis shows that family non-executive directors promote robot ad option by exerting financial and human effects. This paper further finds that th e characteristics of family non-executive directors, such as kinship, differenti al shareholding and excessive directors, affect the role of family non-executive directors. Finally, robot adoption can improve future performance, and the prom otional effect is more evident when family members are non-executive directors. This paper contributes to the related literature from the following two aspects. Firstly, this paper decomposes the types of family directors to understand the role of family non-executive directors, which challenges the assumption that fam ily board members are homogeneous in family firms."
