作者：

Highlights：

• This study examined the first-time acceptance of socially assistive robotics (SAR) by teachers.

• The participants demonstrated positive reactions and acceptance.

• The lack of consolidated views suggested the need for an adaptation of the model.

• The future research of acceptance of SAR will avoid the gap between technology and the end-user.
