Abstract
Providing social robots an internal model of emotions can help them
guide their behaviour in a more humane manner by simulating the
ability to feel empathy towards others. Furthermore, the growing
interest in creating robots that are capable of collaborating with
other humans in team settings provides an opportunity to explore
another side of human emotion, namely, group-based emotions.
This paper contributes with the first model on group-based emotions
in social robotic partners. We defined a model of group-based
emotions for social robots that allowed us to create two distinct
robotic characters that express either individual or group-based
emotions. This paper also contributes with a user study where two
autonomous robots embedded the previous characters, and formed
two human-robot teams to play a competitive game. Our results
showed that participants perceived the robot that expresses groupbased
emotions as more likeable and attributed higher levels of
group identification and group trust towards their teams, when
compared to the robotic partner that expresses individual-based
emotions.
