How, in human–robot interaction, robots enact actions programmed to resemble human interactional competence and how the participants align with the misaligned actions while managing the activities that the robots initiate is observed.
Abstract
This article examines cases from experiments on human–robot interaction in an educational context. Drawing on ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, I analyze interactions structured around the sequential organization of [question]–[answer]–[evaluation] to explore the ascribability of “trust” as a routine foundation of sociality. The analysis focuses on a recurring phenomenon in which participants deal with audio input issues and respond to the robot's misaligned actions by laughing at the robot's behavior and repeating their response. I observe how, in human–robot interaction, robots enact actions programmed to resemble human interactional competence and how the participants align with the misaligned actions while managing the activities that the robots initiate. Moreover, I demonstrate that participants treat the fragility of this resemblance as a basis for determining the robot's trust‐ability.
This study examines interactions between students and a social robot in an experiment designed to explore students' trust in educational robots. In the experiment, 16 out of 22 students come to accept an erroneous solution to a mathematical task presented by the robot, even though the vast majority of students initiall...

Social robots deployed in children's group activities inevitably encounter moments where interaction becomes locally problematic. These moments are often treated as system errors to be prevented, yet they are a normal feature of social interaction. Drawing on conversation-analytic video analysis of robot-mediated photo...

When robots enter our social spaces, we may view them from three different perspectives: as machines, as artefacts
with specific affordances (like ‘seeing’, ‘speaking’, ‘dancing’), or as nonstandard characters, which people construct based on
the features of the robot depicted, the way it is framed by others, and i...

Achieving effective human–robot collaboration (HRC) in dynamic environments like construction requires robots to function as proactive peers, anticipating human intents and acting in advance. While current literature analyzes enabling technologies through a sense–plan–act lens or catalog construction applications, th...

This study aims to investigate how the interaction between service agent type (robot vs human) and language style (flattery vs praise) influences customers’ psychological comfort, alongside the dual mediating roles of affective and cognitive trust and the moderating role of emotional sensitivity.

Findings suggest that trust in human-robot dyads is not isolated but can be influenced by social dynamics, indicating that trust in robots may be interconnected across workforces.
