Influence of robot-issued joint attention cues on gaze and preference

摘要

If inadvertently perceived as Joint Attention, a robot's incidental behaviors could potentially influence preferences of observing humans. A study was conducted with 16 robot-näive participants to explore the influences of robot-issued Joint Attention cues during decision-making. The results suggest that Joint Attention is transferable to HRI and can influence the process and outcome of human decision-making.
