Abstract [en]

Trust is essential for social interactions, including those between humans and social artificial agents, such as robots. Several robot-related factors can contribute to the formation of trust. However, previous work has often treated trust as an absolute concept, whereas it is highly context-dependent, and it is possible that some robot-related features will influence trust in some contexts, but not in others. In this paper, we present the results of two video-based online studies aimed at investigating the role of robot voice and empathic behaviour on trust formation in a general context as well as in a task-specific context. We found that voice influences trust in the specific context, with no effect of voice or empathic behaviour in the general context. Thus, context mediated whether robot-related features play a role in people's trust formation towards robots.
