Quality of Decision-Making Processes in Teams
This study investigates the quality of decision-making processes in corporate teams – a construct that is often overlooked or insufficiently operationalized in existing research. Based on the comprehensive framework by Spetzler et al. (2016), this research systematically assesses process quality, examines its influence on perceived decision-making success and identifies key factors that shape the decision-making processes quality in the context o…
New Short Scale to Measure Workers’ Attitudes Toward the Implementation of Cooperative Robots in Industrial Work Settings
The implementation of new robotic technology at workplaces is oftentimes accompanied by social and organizational change processes. A new context-specific questionnaire was developed as a diagnostic tool to measure workers’ attitudes toward mobile cooperative manufacturing robots to provide a basis for managerial decisions and interventions—the “Attitudes toward Cooperative Industrial Robots Questionnaire” (ACIR-Q). Two samples, an online sample …
Personal Space in Human-Robot Interaction at Work
A recent literature review on personal space in human-robot interaction identified a research gap for the influence of contextual factors. At the same time, psychological research on interpersonal distancing and theoretical considerations based on compensatory control models suggest the importance of considering these factors in robot path planning. To address this gap, we tested the effect of room size and working memory load on participants’ co…
A meta-analytic review of the reliability of the Index of Cognitive Activity concerning task-evoked cognitive workload and light influences
The Index of Cognitive Activity (ICA) was introduced as a promising pupillary workload measure for field investigations since, unlike pupil dilation, it is not affected by illumination. Recent studies have investigated the ICA for task-evoked cognitive workload with contradictory findings. However, few studies investigated the influence of illumination on the ICA. Therefore, to examine inconsistencies regarding the reliability for workload measur…
Is the Social Desirability Effect in Human–Robot Interaction overestimated? A Conceptual Replication Study Indicates Less Robust Effects
The “Computers are social actors” (CASA) assumption (Nass and Moon in J Soc Issues 56:81–103, 2000. https://doi.org/10.1111/0022-4537.00153 ) states that humans apply social norms and expectations to technical devices. One such norm is to distort one’s own response in a socially desirable direction during interviews. However, findings for such an effect are mixed in the literature. Therefore, a new study on the effect of social desirability bias …
Human–Robot Collaboration Acceptance Model
The use of robots in the national economy—especially in industrialized countries—is growing. At the same time, the interdependency between humans and robots is getting increasingly closer: they are engaging in direct contact with each other as more and more organizations let robots and humans work hand-in-hand. One factor that predicts successful human–robot interdependency is the acceptance of the robot by the human. Generally, only when an inno…
