Evaluation Of Communication With Robot And Agent: Are Robots Better Social Actors Than Agents? |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
We experimentally investigated the effects of an embodied conversational agent and a robot on user decision making by using a simple color-name selection problem. The experiments were conducted using 5 groups of 30 people each; each group was tested under a different condition. The agent or robot recommended which name the subject should select for each presented color. The agent had more effect on the user's choice even though the subjects felt a higher degree of familiarity with the robot. We also investigated the effects of two strategies used by agent to gain the user's confidence, and found one was more effective than another. These results indicate that the design rules, for interactive robots are different from those for agents and that the effect of an agent or robot may not be evident to the users. |
