  During the covid-19 pandemic researchers had to find alternative ways to conduct experiments since lab-based studies were prohibited due to lock-downs and social distancing. Video-taping robots and conducting online studies is an easy approach to solve this issue, however, it is unclear whether results from online video-based studies are comparable to in-person experiments. As displaying recordings to participants in online studies is especially easy when it comes to robotic storytelling, we chose this use case for a comparison of the two methodologies and conducted a study with a NAO robot telling a humorous story with or without additional sound usage in an online- respectively lab-setting. Although differences between the presentation modes were found for robot perception, emotion induction, and storytelling experience, the main effect of sound integration did not differ between the two presentation modes, suggesting the comparability of results obtained from online video-based studies on robotic storytelling.

  Racial bias, implicit or explicit, is still a widespread phenomenon in our modern society, negatively affecting the way we interact with foreigners. These biases can also lead to the general tendency to avoid encounters with foreigners, which has a critical impact on society as a whole. This paper presents an approach to reduce implicit and explicit racial bias using two Intelligent Virtual Agents (IVAs) in Virtual Reality (VR). Based on previous research from social psychology and the field of enculturated IVAs, a sympathetic East African-German mixed-cultural IVA, and an antipathetic German mono-cultural IVA were implemented to interact with the participants in a virtual pub quiz. Pre- and post-intervention measures of participants' implicit and explicit bias showed a significant decrease in both scores. This work demonstrates the capability of enculturated IVAs to reduce real-world racial biases and sets the base for cultural interventions with IVAs.

• What if it speaks like it was from the village? Effects of a Robot speaking in Regional Language Variations on Users’ Evaluations. Lugrin, B.; Ströle, E.; Obremski, D.; Schwab, F.; Lange, B.

  The present contribution investigates the effects of spoken language varieties, in particular non-standard / regional language compared to standard language (in our study: High German), in social robotics. Based on (media) psychological and sociolinguistic research, we assumed that a robot speaking in regional language (i.e., dialect and regional accent) would be considered less competent compared to the same robot speaking in standard language (H1). Contrarily, we assumed that regional language might enhance perceived social skills and likability of a robot, at least so when taking into account whether and how much the human observers making the evaluations talk in regional language themselves. More precisely, it was assumed that the more the study participants spoke in regional language, the better their ratings of the dialect-speaking robot on social skills and likeability would be (H2). We also investigated whether the robot’s gender (male vs. female voice) would have an effect on the ratings (RQ). H1 received full, H2 limited empirical support by the data, while the robot’s gender (RQ) turned out to be a mostly negligible factor. Based on our results, practical implications for robots speaking in regional language varieties are suggested.

  Given that human speakers adapt their communicative behavior towards non-native listeners -- a phenomenon known as foreigner talk or teacher talk -- the communicative behavior of an interactive, intelligent virtual agent (IIVA) should also to be adaptive towards the needs of non-native listeners. To investigate the question whether it makes sense to distinguish diferent degrees of language proficiency in non-native addressees when designing communicative behavior skills for IIVAs in mixed-cultural settings, we present first results from a pilot study that is meant to prepare a comprehensive corpus collection. Native speakers of German were asked to explain given German terms to non-native speakers of either low or intermediate language proficiency in German. Results showed significant differences in gesture frequency and also in the types and size of gestures being used, depending on the language proficiency of the non-native listener.

  Substitutional Reality (SR), the integration of the physical environment into Virtual Reality (VR), is a novel approach to facilitate and intensify the use of home-based VR systems. We propose to extend the passive haptics of SR with the interactive functionality of a smart home environment. This concept of smart SR is meant as a foundation for serious games and applications. In this paper, we describe the concept behind smart SR as well as the prototype in our lab environment. We created multiple virtual environments with a varying degree of mismatch regarding the real world. We present a user study where we examined the influence of these environments on the perceived sense of presence and motivation of users. Our findings showed that presence was high in all conditions while motivation increased with the level of mismatch. This provides us with a promising basis for further research.

  People tend to adapt to their conversation partners. In mixed-cultural settings, with a native and a non-native speaker, adaptation can manifest itself in the usage of simplified language or increased usage of non-verbal scaffolding to foster understanding. In this contribution, we address the question whether the phenomenon of AFC (adapted, foreigner-directed communication) is also shown towards a virtual agent. We therefore implemented a demonstrator with a local and a foreign agent that interact with human users in a direction giving scenario. A user study revealed that participants behaved differently towards the two agents and adapted both, their verbal and their non-verbal behaviour. We are thus confident, that our demonstrator is well suited to systematically study AFC.

  Culture, amongst other individual and social factors, plays a crucial role in human-human interactions. If robots should become a part of our society, they should be able to act in culture-specific manners as well. In this paper, we showcase the implementation of a cultural dichotomy, namely individualism vs. collectivism, in a social robots\u0027 conversation. Presenting these conversations to human observers from Germany and Japan, we investigate whether the implemented differences are recognized as such, and whether stereotypical culture-specific behaviours that correspond to the observers\u0027 cultural background is preferred. Results suggest that the manipulations in behaviour had the intended effect, but are not reflected in personal preferences.

  Social Robots bear great potential to tell stories to human listeners. Through their embodiment and ability to display non-verbal and emotional behaviour, additional modalities can be used to transport the user into the story compared to traditional media such as books or audio books. Based on theoretical knowledge about the design of social robot storytellers and the analysis of human storytellers, we designed the behaviour of an emotional social robot storyteller and compared it to a neutral version of the robotic storyteller and the voice of a human story- teller represented by an audio book. Results suggest that the emotional robot is able to transport the participants equally well as the traditional audio book, while the neutral robot performed worse. We therefore claim, that emotional behaviour in the domain of robotic storytelling should be carefully designed to support the story rather then preventing a good transportation.

  This paper introduces an interactive surface concept for Mixed Reality (MR) tabletop games that combines a variable (LCD and/or projection) screen configuration with the detection of finger touches, in-air gestures, and tangibles. It is low-cost and minimally requires an ordinary table, a TV screen, and a Kinect v2 sensor. Existing applications can easily be connected by being compliant to standards. The concept is intended to foster further research on collaborative tabletop situations, not limited to games, but also in- cluding learning, meetings, and social interaction.

  In order to enable a social agent to behave in a believable and realistic way, it needs a wide range of information in the form of both low-level value-based data as well as high-level semantic knowledge. In this work we propose a system that puts a virtual reality layer between the real world and an agent\u0027s knowledge representation. This mirror world allows the agent to use its abstract representation of the environment and inferred events as an additional source of knowledge when reasoning about the real world. Additionally, users and developers can use the mirror world, with its visualized data and highlighting of the agent\u0027s reasoning, for further understanding of the agent\u0027s behavior, debugging and testing, or the simulation of additional sensor input.

• Dynamic Context Integration through Modularized Ontologies and Semantic Blueprints. Eckstein, Benjamin; Lugrin, Birgit. In 5th International Workshop on Human-Agent Interaction Design and Models (HAIDM 2016), in conjunction with IJCAI 2016. 2016.

  Some recent approaches in context-aware systems deploy on-tologies to benefit from their expressive power and extensive availability within the World Wide Web. However, wide-ranging ontologies tend to grow into large and complicated constructs, thereby making them difficult to maintain or reason on. In this work, we present a lightweight system design that combines the advantages of minimal, distributed or modularized ontologies with the computational power of a state-of-the-art real-time interactive system. Therefore, we introduce a simple data-structure called blueprints, that describes various reasoning operations to allow the dynamic integration of domain-specific knowledge for time-critical tasks, e.g. in multi-agent systems. Following this concept, we formulate four major use cases which are described through exemplary problems and proposed solutions. The presented design aims at porta-bility and adaptability, while maintaining real-time capability.

• The Influence of a Social Robot’s Persona on How it is Perceived and Accepted by Elderly Users. Bartl, Andrea; Bosch, Stefanie; Brandt, Michael; Dittrich, Monique; Lugrin, Birgit.

  The demographic change causes an imbalance between the number of elderly in need of support and the number of caring staff. Therefore, it is important to help older adults keep their independence. Forgetting is a common obstacle people have to face when they become older which can be moderated by social robots by reminding on tasks. Since most elderly people are not used to robots a challenge in HRI is to identify aspects of a robot’s design to promote its acceptance. We present two different personas (companion vs. assistant) for a robotic platform by manipulating verbal and nonverbal behavior. A study was conducted in assisted living accommodations with the robot reminding on appointments to review if the persona influences the robot’s acceptance. Results indicate that the companion version of the robot was better accepted and perceived more likeable and intelligent compared to the assistant version.
