Influence of robot anthropomorphism on consumer attitudes toward restaurants and service providers
We conducted this study to investigate the influence of robot anthropomorphism on consumers’ attitudes toward restaurants and service providers, focusing on the moderating effects of robot social roles and consumer autonomy. The results of Study 1 revealed that anthropomorphic robots fostered more positive attitudes toward restaurants and service robots than non-anthropomorphic robots when consumers viewed restaurant advertisements. The results of Study 2 revealed that consumers also exhibited more positive attitudes toward anthropomorphic robots compared to non-anthropomorphic robots when picturing restaurant dining experiences. Furthermore, when non-anthropomorphic robots were assigned partner roles and consumers were given the option to choose their servers, attitudes toward these robots improved. Collectively, these findings suggest that anthropomorphism in robots can lead to more positive attitudes, and the acceptance of non-anthropomorphic robots can be enhanced through greater consumer autonomy and the assignment of partner roles. These results provide insight into AI service marketing strategies.
期刊介绍:
ACS Catalysis is an esteemed journal that publishes original research in the fields of heterogeneous catalysis, molecular catalysis, and biocatalysis. It offers broad coverage across diverse areas such as life sciences, organometallics and synthesis, photochemistry and electrochemistry, drug discovery and synthesis, materials science, environmental protection, polymer discovery and synthesis, and energy and fuels.
The scope of the journal is to showcase innovative work in various aspects of catalysis. This includes new reactions and novel synthetic approaches utilizing known catalysts, the discovery or modification of new catalysts, elucidation of catalytic mechanisms through cutting-edge investigations, practical enhancements of existing processes, as well as conceptual advances in the field. Contributions to ACS Catalysis can encompass both experimental and theoretical research focused on catalytic molecules, macromolecules, and materials that exhibit catalytic turnover.
