Sense of agency during human-robot interaction
2020
The sense of agency experienced in joint action is thus a central subjective dimension of human
sociality. In a series of 3 experiments, we explore the development of we-agency when interacting
with robot. Combining a Social Simon
task with the intentional binding effect, we explore (1) the emergence of self and we-agency in
joint action and (2) the impact of the nature of the partner (human Vs Social robot Vs Computer)
on the development of we-agency.
Our two first experiments show that a vicarious sense of agency developed when co-acting with
another human agent but not with a computer. Moreover, EEG data indicated a decrease in task
involvement when engaged in human-computer interaction. A third experiment shows that the
social nature of the artificial agent can modulate the development of we-agency, but also that the
emergence
of a we-unit can alter the development of the self-agency. Taken together, the different studies
presented suggest that the science of agency provide us new conceptual tools and measures to
analyze agent-system interaction.
