个性是创建社交互动机器人的基本特征。这个维度的研究将有助于增强人机交互（HPI）。我们使用索尼开发的社交机器宠物 AIBO，研究了 HRI 中的人格问题。在这个性别平衡的2（AIBO性格：内向与外向）×2（参与者性格：内向与外向）受试者间实验（N = 48）中，我们发现参与者可以根据机器人的言语和非言语行为准确识别机器人的性格。此外，HRI中还发现了多种互补吸引效应。当机器人的个性与他们自己的个性互补时，参与者比当机器人的个性与他们自己的个性相似时更喜欢与机器人互动。在参与者对机器人智力和社交吸引力的评价中也发现了同样的互补吸引效应。参与者在互动过程中的社会存在感是观察到的互补性吸引力效应的重要中介因素。讨论了当前研究对社交机器人设计和 HRI 研究的实践和理论意义。
Personality is an essential feature for creating socially interactive robots. Studies on this dimension will facilitate enhanced human-robot interaction (HPI). Using AIBO, a social robotic pet developed by Sony, we examined the issue of personality in HRI. In this gender-balanced 2 (AIBO personality: introvert vs. extrovert) by 2 (participant personality: introvert vs. extrovert) between-subject experiment (N = 48), we found that participants could accurately recognize a robot's personality based on its verbal and nonverbal behaviors. In addition, various complementarity attraction effects were found in HRI. Participants enjoyed interacting with a robot more when the robot's personality was complementary to their own personalities than when the robot's personality was similar to their own personalities. The same complementarity attraction effect was found in participants' evaluation of the robot's intelligence and social attraction. Participants' feelings of social presence during the interaction were a significant mediator for the complementarity attraction effects observed. Practical and theoretical implications of the current study for the design of social robots and the study of HRI were discussed.
