基于进化心理学理论，许多眼动追踪研究已经证明了人们如何视觉感知潜在的伴侣，以有效地估计该人的配偶价值。公司目前正在研究性化机器人，提供许多类似人类的视觉线索，促进与人类的视觉相似性。为了获得更详细的知识，人们如何反应与人类相比，性化的机器人，本研究实证研究是否异性恋男性转移根深蒂固的进化心理过程的配偶感知到类人和机器的性化机器人。此外，我们的目标是了解更多关于人类和非人类刺激的定向反应过程以及机器人视觉注意力的潜在预测因素。因此，我们进行了一项眼动追踪研究，其中15名异性恋男性，12名同性恋男性和18名异性恋女性面对的刺激显示女性，类人gynoid机器人和机器类gynoid机器人。对于整个样本来说，观察人类和非人类乳房所花费的时间没有差异。然而，异性恋男性的结果支持了这样一个假设，即人类的乳房比类人和类机器人的乳房区域吸引更多的视觉注意力。骨盆区域产生了一种意想不到的凝视模式，因为所有参与者花更多的时间看机器人骨盆区域而不是人类，更多的视觉注意力集中在机器人身上而不是人类机器人。朝向头部的观看时间的结果显示，与机器人头部相比，所有参与者都更需要获得关于人类头部的视觉信息，这强调了情感和动机的真实性的重要性，这些情感和动机只能在人类中解码。此外，研究表明，与女性刺激相比，个体更频繁地将视觉注意力转向机器人的不同身体部位，这意味着非人类的性表征引起了对视觉探索的更高需求。
Based on evolutionary psychological theories, numerous eye-tracking studies have demonstrated how people visually perceive a potential mate in order to efficiently estimate the person’s mate value. Companies are currently working on sexualized robots that provide numerous human-like visual cues which foster the visual resemblance to humans. To gain more elaborated knowledge on how people react to sexualized robots compared with humans, the present study empirically investigated whether heterosexual males transfer deep-rooted evolutionary psychological processes of mate perception to human-like and machine-like sexualized robots. Moreover, we aimed to learn more about the processes of orienting responses toward human and non-human stimuli and about potential predictors of visual attention to robots. Therefore, we conducted an eye-tracking study in which 15 heterosexual men, 12 homosexual men, and 18 heterosexual women were confronted with stimuli showing women, human-like gynoid robots and machine-like gynoid robots. For the sample as a whole, there was no difference in the amount of time spent looking at the human and non-human breasts. However, the results for the heterosexual males supported the assumption that human breasts attract more visual attention than do the breast areas of human-like and machine-like robots. The pelvic region yielded an unexpected gaze pattern, as all participants spent more time looking at the robotic pelvic area than at the human one, with more visual attention paid to the machine-like robots than to the human-like robots. The results of the viewing times toward the head revealed that all participants had a stronger need to gain visual information about the human head in comparison to the robotic heads, underlining the importance of authenticity in terms of emotions and motivations that can only be decoded in humans. Moreover, the study showed that individuals more frequently switched their visual attention toward different body parts of the robots in comparison to the female stimuli, implying that non-human sexualized representations evoked a higher need for visual exploration.
