It is suggested that the nature of the task requested by the robot, e.g. whether its effects are revocable as opposed to irrevocable, has a significant impact on participants’ willingness to follow its instructions.
Abstract
How do mistakes made by a robot affect its trustworthiness and acceptance in human-robot collaboration? We investigate how the perception of erroneous robot behavior may influence human interaction choices and the willingness to cooperate with the robot by following a number of its unusual requests. For this purpose, we conducted an experiment in which participants interacted with a home companion robot in one of two experimental conditions: (1) the correct mode or (2) the faulty mode. Our findings reveal that, while significantly affecting subjective perceptions of the robot and assessments of its reliability and trustworthiness, the robot's performance does not seem to substantially influence participants' decisions to (not) comply with its requests. However, our results further suggest that the nature of the task requested by the robot, e.g. whether its effects are revocable as opposed to irrevocable, has a significant impact on participants' willingness to follow its instructions.

Overtrust of Robots in Emergency Evacuation Scenarios

TL;DR: All 26 participants followed the robot in the emergency, despite half observing the same robot perform poorly in a navigation guidance task just minutes before, and the majority of people did not choose to safely exit the way they entered.

Understanding the Effect of Accuracy on Trust in Machine Learning Models

TL;DR: It is found that people's trust in a model is affected by both its stated accuracy and its observed accuracy, and that the effect of stated accuracy can change depending on the observed accuracy.

Exploring customer experiences with robotics in hospitality

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore consumer reviews with robotics based on the five dimensions for evaluating user experiences (i.e. embodiment, emotion, human-oriented perception, feeling of security and co-experience), as derived from research in human-robot interactions (HRI).

Marketing robot services in hospitality and tourism: the role of anthropomorphism

TL;DR: In this paper, anthropomorphic human-like characteristics seem critical component to consumers accepting robotic service (rS) and they should play an increasing role in hospitality and tourism services. But they are difficult to implement in practice.

The potential for tourism and hospitality experience research in human-robot interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed recent work in the robotics literature and identified future opportunities for consumer/tourist experience research in human-robot interactions (HRIs) and provided potential directions for advancing theoretical, methodological and managerial implications for tourism experience research.

A very brief measure of the Big-Five personality domains

TL;DR: In this paper, a 10-item measure of the Big-Five personality dimensions is proposed for situations where very short measures are needed, personality is not the primary topic of interest, or researchers can tolerate the somewhat diminished psychometric properties associated with very brief measures.

Trust in Automation: Integrating Empirical Evidence on Factors That Influence Trust

TL;DR: A three-layered trust model provides a new lens for conceptualizing the variability of trust in automation and can be applied to help guide future research and develop training interventions and design procedures that encourage appropriate trust.

A meta-analysis of factors affecting trust in human-robot interaction.

TL;DR: Factors related to the robot itself, specifically, its performance, had the greatest current association with trust, and environmental factors were moderately associated; there was little evidence for effects of human-related factors.

On-line trust: concepts, evolving themes, a model

TL;DR: The definitions of trust are analyzed, the relevant dimensions of trust for an on-line context are identified, and a definition of trust between people and informational or transactional websites is presented.

Trust in automation. Part II. Experimental studies of trust and human intervention in a process control simulation.

TL;DR: Two experiments are reported which examined operators' trust in and use of the automation in a simulated supervisory process control task and suggest that operators' subjective ratings of trust and the properties of the automate, can be used to predict and optimize the dynamic allocation of functions in automated systems.
