Abstract

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.

儿童对社交机器人的接受程度

社交机器人逐渐进入儿童的生活，但人们对儿童对社交机器人及其前身的接受程度知之甚少。为了填补这一研究空白，这篇叙述性综述调查了2000年至2017年间发表的34篇关于儿童机器人互动的文章。我们关注机器人、用户和互动特征，这些特征是儿童有意和行为接受社交机器人的潜在前因。一般来说，孩子们很容易接受机器人。然而，我们发现，机器人的社交、适应性行为、儿童的性别和年龄以及互动频率似乎都会影响接受度。此外，我们发现该领域存在各种理论和方法上的不足。该综述最后提出了关于儿童接受社交机器人的未来研究的建议和方向。

期刊介绍： This international peer-reviewed journal aims to advance knowledge in the growing and strongly interdisciplinary area of Interaction Studies in biological and artificial systems. Understanding social behaviour and communication in biological and artificial systems requires knowledge of evolutionary, developmental and neurobiological aspects of social behaviour and communication; the embodied nature of interactions; origins and characteristics of social and narrative intelligence; perception, action and communication in the context of dynamic and social environments; social learning.
