By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Robotics is the subjec t of a report. According to news reporting out of Beijing, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Previous research has demonstrated t he influence of commensal dining between humans on food choices, whereas we cond ucted two studies to examine how the presence of a robot might influence people' s choices between meat-heavy and vegetable-forward meals in imaginary scenarios. In Study 1, participants were instructed to choose three desirable dishes from a set of two meat and two vegetable dishes while they imagined eating alone, wit h a human, or with a robot." Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Tsinghua University , "Although the meat dishes were rated as more palatable and pleasant, the femal e participants chose fewer meat-heavy meals when eating alone or with a robot th an when eating with a human, whereas no such effect was observed for the male pa rticipants. We also replicated these patterns in Study 2, as the female particip ants chose fewer meat-heavy meals when eating with a robot and a human than when eating with two humans."
