초록

의인화는 로봇과 같이, 인간이 아닌 대상에게 인간의 속성, 정서나 의도를 부여하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 로봇에 게 인간 고유의 속성을 부여하는 의인화가 로봇-인간의 상호작용에 끼치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구 1에서는 다양한 로봇의 사진을 제시하고, 로봇의 외관에 따른 심리적 불쾌감, 마음지각 및 도덕적 처우를 자기보고식 질문지를 통해 분석하였다. 그 결과 로봇의 외관이 인간과 가장 유사한 안드로이드 로봇조건에서 휴머노이드 로봇의 조건과 기계적 외관의 조건보다 로봇에 대한 심리적 불쾌감이 가장 높았다. 또한 인간과 유사한 안드로이드 로봇에서 기계와 비슷 한 로봇보다 로봇에 대한 마음지각이 더 높게 나타났다. 연구 2에서는 로봇의 속성을 의인화한 조건과 의인화하지 않은 조건에서 로봇에 대한 불쾌감, 마음지각과 도덕적 처우의 정도가 다르게 나타나는지를 비교하였다. 그 결과 로봇 속성의 의인화조건에서 로봇에 대한 마음지각과 도덕적 처우의 정도가 더 높게 나타났으며, 마음지각의 경험성 이 높을수록 도덕적 처우의 정도가 더 높아졌다. 이 결과는 인간과 유사한 로봇의 외관은 로봇에 대한 심리적 불쾌감 을 증가시키지만, 로봇의 속성에 대한 의인화는 로봇에 대한 마음지각을 증가시키고, 인간-로봇의 상호작용을 촉진 시킬 가능성을 제시한다. 논의에서는 의인화가 인간-로봇의 상호작용에 끼치는 차별화된 영향에 대한 시사점을 토론 하고, 연구의 한계 및 후속연구의 방향을 다루었다.

Abstract

The attribution of human traits, emotions, and intentions to nonhuman entities such as robots is known as anthropomorphism. Two studies were conducted to check whether human-robot interaction is affected by anthropomorphic framing of robots. In Study 1, participants were presented with pictures of robots that varied in human similarity in appearance. According to the results, uncanny feelings toward a robot increased with the higher levels of human similarity. Furthermore, as the level of mind attribution increased, participants tended to attribute more humanlike abilities to nonhuman agents. In Study 2, a robot was described as either a machine-like robot or a humanlike robot in a priming story; then, it was examined whether significant differences exist in mind attribution and moral care. The participants tended to perceive robots as more humanlike in the mind attribution when anthropomorphism was used in a robot's behavior, according to the findings. Furthermore, in the condition of increased anthropomorphism, a higher level of moral care could be observed compared with that in the other condition. This means that humanlike appearances may increase uncanny feelings, whereas anthropomorphic attribution may facilitate social interactions between humans and robots. Limitations as well as the implications for future research are discussed.
