Robots make me feel more like a human! Investigating how employee-robot engagement reduces workplace depersonalization
Recent research has begun to investigate employee-robot interactions, but the impact of employee-robot engagement in the workplace still requires further exploration. This research adopted a perspective of psychological empowerment to uncover the mechanisms and boundary conditions between employee-robot engagement and workplace depersonalization. A mixed-method research design with three studies was employed. Study 1 involved a qualitative research approach and developed a theoretical model of employee-robot engagement under robot-related psychological empowerment, which includes meaning, competence, self-determination, and impact. Study 2 consisted of an online experiment, and the results revealed that employee-robot engagement can significantly reduce the presence of depersonalization. Study 3 employed a questionnaire survey and demonstrated that employee-robot engagement, through robot-related psychological empowerment, reduced depersonalization, with developmental HR practices playing a moderating role. Our research expands human-robot interaction theories, and offers practical guidance for the adoption of service robots in tourism and hospitality organizations.
