[meetings][CFP][RO-MAN 2024] Trust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot Interaction Workshop
Dear colleagues,
it is with great pleasure that we invite you to submit your works at the
seventh edition of a successful series of workshops SCRITA.
This workshop focuses on the continuous investigation of unresolved and
new open challenges of the factors affecting people's acceptance and
trust in robots in short- and long-term settings.
We will invite authors to submit position papers only, discussing their
prior experience and new developments in the scope of the workshop to
feed into the group and the following panel discussions.
We further encourage authors of the accepted papers to present a video
or demonstrate their works and achievements.
All accepted papers will have short oral presentations.
Please find below the full CFP, but do not hesitate to contact us for
further information.
best regards
Alessandra

This workshop will be a half day event organised in conjunction with
theIEEE RO-MAN 2024 http://ro-man2024.org/conference, held in
Pasadena, California, USA.
This workshop focuses on the continuous investigation of unresolved and
new open challenges of the factors affecting people's acceptance and
trust in robots in short- and long-term settings. In particular, we want
to look into the dynamics between people and robots to foster short
interactions and long-lasting relationships taking inspiration from
different domains, such as educational, service, collaborative,
companion, care-home and medical robotics. For that, this workshop aims
to facilitate a discussion about people’s trust towards robots “in the
field”, inviting workshop participants to contribute their past
experiences, lessons learnt and future issues.
During last year's workshop edition(i.e., SCRITA@RO-MAN 2023), together
with leading researchers and exceptional speakers from various fields,
we started working towards developing such novel methods. We outlined
current methods and their strengths, discussing how these measures do
not always reflect appropriately, or how some questions might be
ambiguous and leave room for interpretation by individual participants.
We identified five main factors affecting trust to be investigated to
generate a new metric that allows researchers to assess and reduce
common side effects influencing how people put their trust in robots.
Submission & List of Topics
The workshop will be open to a broad audience from academia and industry
researching social robotics, machine learning, robot behavioural
control, and user profiling. In particular, we aim to integrate
expertise from roboticists with psychologists' and sociologists’
insights and experiences to foster a multidisciplinary and human-focused
discussion that can capture the multi-faceted nature of trust and
acceptance. We will foster the exchange of views on past and ongoing
research and contribute to the discussion of innovative ideas for
tackling unresolved issues by providing new and inspirational directions
for research.
We will invite authors to submit position papers only, discussing their
prior experience and new developments in the scope of the workshop to
feed into the group and the following panel discussions.
We further encourage authors of the accepted papers topresent a video or
demonstratetheir works and achievements.
All accepted submissions will have an oral presentation.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Impact of Social Cues on Trust in HRI;
Measuring Trust in HRI;
Trust Violation and Recovery Mechanism in HRI;
Effects of Humans’ Acceptance on Trust of Robots;
Humans Sense of Control and Trust in Robots;
Trust and Assistive Robotics;
Overtrust in Robots;
Antecedent of Trust and Robot Trust;
Enhancing Humans Trust in Robots;
Enhancing Trust in a Robot Companion;
Privacy Implications on Trust in HRI;
Mental Models and Trust in HRI;
Trust and Safety in HRI;

Submission Guidelines
Authors should submit their papers formatted according to theIEEE
two-column format
http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php, which is
also used for contributions to the main conference. Use the following
templates to create the paper and generate or export a PDF file:LaTeX

http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/word.php.
Authors needs to submit their PDF via EasyChair
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=scrita2024. Each paper will
receive at least two reviews. All papers are reviewed using a
single-blind review process: authors declare their names and
affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to see, but reviewers
do not know each other's identities, nor do the authors receive
information about who has reviewed their manuscript.
