{ "pk": 25917, "title": "How are interaction between human and an autonomous agent affected by\nembodiments and voice?: Investigation with age groups comparison.", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Although many information system are employing autonomous agents for the purpose of user-friendly interface,\ncognitive mechanisms of their effects are not clear yet. In this study, we compared three types of UI, an embodied agent\nsystem equipped with a direct anthropomorphization robot, an only voice agent, and without agent system condition, of a\nmicrowave oven. Thirty-six older (65 years or above) and 36 younger adults (undergraduate students) participated in the\nusability testing experiment with one of the three agent conditions. Analysis of interaction between a participant and the oven,\nthrough participants’ utterance and the personal-space data, showed large differences between two age groups; younger adults\nentertained the interaction both the voice and the embodiment agent conditions, while older adults evaluated higher only with\nthe embodiment agent condition. Differences in mental models of older- and younger adults, and reasons of those aging effects\nwill be discussed.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Member Abstracts", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/24g8t9nc", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Etsuko", "middle_name": "T", "last_name": "Harada", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Faculty of Human Sciences, University of Tsukuba", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Riko", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hasegawa", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Universtity of Tsukuba", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Wataru", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kayano", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Universtity of Tsukuba", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Hirotaka", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Osawa", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Faculty of Engineering, Information and Systems, Universtity of Tsukuba", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T21:00:00+03:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25917/galley/15541/download/" } ] }
