Self-efficacy and acceptance of robots

作者:

Highlights:

• Robot use self-efficacy was associated with the acceptance to use humanoid, pet, and telepresence robots.

• General self-efficacy was not associated with any of the robot types.

• No interaction effect was found between general self-efficacy and robot use self-efficacy.

• Psychological processes on acceptance of robots vary between different types of robots.

• The explanatory power of self-efficacy is better when it is tied to a concrete matter such as the use of care robots.
