Shrnutí:Robots will increasingly collaborate with human partners necessitating research into how robots negotiate negative collaborative outcomes. This study investigates the effect of blame attribution on trust assessments in human-robot collaboration. Participants (n=60) collaboratively played a game with a humanoid robot in one of four conditions in a 2 (blame correctness: correct vs. incorrect) by 2 (blame target: human vs. robot) between-subjects experiment. Results show that people evaluate a robot more positively when it blames itself for collaborative failures, especially, it seems, in the case of incorrect self-blame. Our findings indicate a need to further research on effective communication strategies for robots that need to negotiate collaborative failures without compromising the trust relationships with its human partner.
