Cognitive Webinar
Duration
90 minutes
Why should psychologists be interested in robots? This talk aims to illustrate how social robots – machines with human-like features and behaviors – can offer interesting insights into the human mind. I will first provide a brief overview of how robots have been used in psychology and cognitive science research focusing on two approaches - Developmental Robotics and Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). We will then delve into recent works in HRI, including my own, in greater detail. We will also address the limitations of research thus far, such as the lack of proper controlled experiments, and discuss how the scientific community should evaluate the use of technology in educational and other social settings.
