Do I still like myself? Human-robot collaboration entails emotional consequences

作者:

Highlights:

• Emotional concepts of ourselves and human interaction partners are linked to performance, well-being, and interaction style.

• Here, we investigated whether emotional concepts might be equally relevant when interacting with telepresent robot partners.

• Results confirm that beliefs about and interactions with telepresent robots do change emotional concepts of both robot and self.

• Further validation of emotion-driven consequences and investigation of the generalizability to copresent robots is desirable.

• We conclude that emotional consequences for the human should be considered when designing human-robot interactions.
