Résumé

Attentional control does not have fix functioning and can be strongly impacted by the presence of other human beings or humanoid robots. In two studies, this phenomenon was investigated while focusing exclusively on robot gaze as a potential determinant of attentional control along with the role of participants’ anthropomorphic inferences toward the robot. In study 1, we expected and found higher interference in trials including a direct robot gaze compared to an averted gaze on a task measuring attentional control (Eriksen flanker task). Participants’ anthropomorphic inferences about the social robot mediated this interference. In study 2, we found that averted gazes congruent with the correct answer (same task as study 1) facilitated performance. Again, this effect was mediated by anthropomorphic inferences. These two studies show the importance of anthropomorphic robotic gaze on human cognitive processing, especially attentional control, and also open new avenues of research in social robotics.
