“…Consequently, adolescents are less likely to accept a robot in a social role. Adolescents may also have higher expectations of the robot -not least because of unrealistic depictions of robots in popular science fiction (Dinet & Vivian, 2014;Kriz, Ferro, Damera, & Porter, 2010;Sundar, Waddell, & Jung, 2016) -which may lead to disappointment.…”

Social robots progressively enter children’s lives, but little is known about children’s acceptance of social robots and its antecedents. To fill this research gap, this narrative review surveyed 34 articles on child-robot interaction published between 2000 and 2017. We focused on robot, user, and interaction characteristics as potential antecedents of children’s intentional and behavioral social robot acceptance. In general, children readily accept robots. However, we found that social, adaptive robot behavior, children’s sex and age, as well as frequency of the interaction seem to affect acceptance. Additionally, we found various theoretical and methodological shortcomings in the field. The review concludes with recommendations and directions for future research on children’s acceptance of social robots.

“…Rosie the robot from the 1960's television show, The Jetsons. However, even today there are still very few robots in the home due to the technical challenges and high expectations of such systems [11,24]. Thus, much of our existing knowledge is from short term studies that take place in laboratory settings limiting their impact.…”

In the future, we envision domestic robots to play a large role in our everyday lives. This requires robots able to anticipate our needs and preferences and adapt their behavior. Since current robotics research takes place primarily in laboratory settings, it fails to take into account real users. In this work, we explore how organization occurs in the kitchen through a home study. Our analysis includes qualitative insights towards robot behavior during kitchen organization, an open source dataset of real life kitchens, and a proof-of-concept application of this dataset to the problem of object return.

“…Typically, people naive to social robots in terms of real world encounters, already have certain expectations on their functionalities based on fictional movies and stories. In reality though, there is a significant gap between the current state of robotics research and science fiction [20], and sometimes even advertisements for real robots that make use of artificial intelligence 1 . As a consequence, negative effects on the interaction quality have to be considered when violating the user's expectations on the robot [23].…”

This work investigates how human awareness about a social robot's capabilities is related to trusting this robot to handle different tasks. We present a user study that relates knowledge on different quality levels to participant's ratings of trust. Secondary school pupils were asked to rate their trust in the robot after three types of exposures: a video demonstration, a live interaction, and a programming task. The study revealed that the pupils' trust is positively affected across different domains after each session, indicating that human users trust a robot more the more awareness about the robot they have.
