“…Examples of zoomorphic robots are Paro (Kidd, Taggart, & Turkle, 2006;Shibata et al, 2012;Wada & Shibata, 2006;Wada & Shibata, 2007), iCat (van Breemen, Yan, & Meerbeek, 2005;Leite et al, 2014), AIBO (Bartneck, Reichenbach, & Carpenter, 2008;Banks, Willoughby, & Banks, 2008;Friedman, Kahn, & Hagman, 2003;Weiss, Wurhofer, & Tscheligi, 2009), Sparky (Scheeff et al, 2002), Nabaztag and its successor Karotz de Graaf, Ben Allouch, & Klamer, 2015;de Graaf, Ben Allouch, & van Dijk, 2014;Klamer, Ben Allouch, & Heylen, 2010), and Pleo Fernaeus et al, 2010;Jacobsson, 2009;Rosenthal -von der Pütten et al, 2013). The studies reported in this dissertation are mainly conducted using a zoomorphic robot.…”

“…This sounds logical, given that the human ability to recognize and manifest emotions is critical for successful social integration (Lee, et al, 2005), and it is thus critical in social robots as well (Breazeal, 2003). If future robots are going to merge into our everyday lives, they should be able to respond to our emotions in an empathic manner (Leite et al, 2014).…”

“…The selection of robot's behaviour based on the affective state of the user is another important aspect. Research indicated that the inclusion of an emphatic dialogue (use of praise, empathy) can result in creating a social engagement during Children-Robot Interaction [41]. However, we need to create emotional expressions for the robot based on the facial expression, gesture or voice animations.…”

“…Recent studies have utilised the data based on user profile and performance [41,73] to implement memory based adaptations, We believe that researchers need to find more sophisticated means to implement robots that modify their actions based on past interactions of the user. As such adaptation system would require storing user data, therefore, we need ethical guidelines for researchers on the use of data.…”

Abstract:As the field of social robotics is growing, a consensus has been made on the design and implementation of robotic systems that are capable of adapting based on the user actions. These actions may be based on their emotions, personality or memory of past interactions. Therefore, we believe it is significant to report a review of the past research on the use of adaptive robots that have been utilised in various social environments. In this paper, we present a systematic review on the reported adaptive interactions across a number of domain areas during Human-Robot Interaction and also give future directions that can guide the design of future adaptive social robots. We conjecture that this will help towards achieving long-term applicability of robots in various social domains.

“…Therefore, different approaches from sociology or psychology have already been exploited (i.e. goal-setting, empathy, backstory or personalization [2,[5][6][7]). One other important interactional aspect that sport instructors are regularly incorporating into exercising is acknowledgement.…”

Abstract. Preventing diseases of affluence is one of the major challenges for our future society. Recently, robots have been introduced as support for people on dieting or rehabilitation tasks. In our current work, we are investigating how the companionship and acknowledgement of a socially assistive robot (SAR) can influence the user to persist longer on a planking task. We conducted a 2 (acknowledgement vs. no-acknowledgment) x 2 (instructing vs. exercising together) x 1 (baseline) study with 96 subjects. We observed a motivational gain if the robot is exercising together with the user or if the robot is giving acknowledging feedback. However, we could not find an increase in motivation if the robot is showing both behaviors. We attribute the later finding to ceiling effects and discuss why we could not find an additional performance gain. Moreover, we highlight implications for SAR researchers developing robots to motivate people to extend exercising duration.
