Asch Meets HRI: Human Conformity to Robot Groups
We present a research outline that aims at investigating group dynamics and peer pressure in the context of industrial robots. Our research plan was motivated by the fact that industrial robots became already an integral part of human-robot co-working. However, industrial robots have been sparsely integrated into research on robot credibility, group dynamics, and potential users' tendency to follow a robot's indication. Therefore, we aim to transfer the classic Asch experiment (see \cite{Asch_51}) into HRI with industrial robots. More precisely, we will test to what extent participants follow a robot's response when confronted with a group (vs. individual) industrial robot arms (vs. human) peers who give a false response. We are interested in highlighting the effects of group size, perceived robot credibility, psychological stress, and peer pressure in the context of industrial robots. With the results of this research, we hope to highlight group dynamics that might underlie HRI in industrial settings in which numerous robots already work closely together with humans in shared environments.

A phenomenon of AI-conformity: how algorithms change human moral decision-making
Social conformity is a well-documented phenomenon in which individuals shift their opinions towards those of a social majority. As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into everyday life it may al…
The Measuring Hate Speech Corpus: Leveraging Rasch Measurement Theory for Data Perspectivism
We introduce the Measuring Hate Speech corpus, a dataset created to measure hate speech while adjusting for annotators’ perspectives. It consists of 50,070 social media comments spanning YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter, lab…
Experimental DesignQuantification of Actual Road User Behavior on the Basis of Given Traffic Rules
Driving on roads is restricted by various traffic rules, aiming to ensure safety for all traffic participants. However, human road users usually do not adhere to these rules strictly, resulting in varying degrees of rule…
Autonomous DrivingBridging or Breaking: Impact of Intergroup Interactions on Religious Polarization
While exposure to diverse viewpoints may reduce polarization, it can also have a backfire effect and exacerbate polarization when the discussion is adversarial. Here, we examine the question whether intergroup interactio…
Meta-LearningENCP: Episode-Normalized Conformal Prediction for Vision-and-Language Navigation
Uncertainty estimation for Vision-Language-Navigation (VLN) models is a critical task since it can help identify ambiguous and unreliable predictions, enabling agents to make safer navigation decisions. As one of the mos…
