Topologies of social interactions [PDF]

open access: yesEconomic Theory, 2006
The paper extends the Brock-Durlauf social interactions model to richer social structures modelled with arbitrary interaction topologies and examines in detail the star, the wheel and the path. It explores Nash equilibria when agents act on the basis of expectations over, and, alternatively, actual knowledge their neighbors’ decisions.

Upper limb exercise with physical and virtual robots: Visual sensitivity affects task performance

open access: yesPaladyn, 2021
We investigated the influence of visual sensitivity on the performance of an imitation task with the robot R1 in its virtual and physical forms. Virtual and physical embodiments offer different sensory experience to the users.

Seeing social interactions

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2023
Seeing the interactions between other people is a critical part of our everyday visual experience, but recognizing the social interactions of others is often considered outside the scope of vision and grouped with higher-level social cognition like theory of mind.

Social inclusion of robots depends on the way a robot is presented to observers

open access: yesPaladyn, 2022
Research has shown that people evaluate others according to specific categories. As this phenomenon seems to transfer from human–human to human–robot interactions, in the present study we focused on (1) the degree of prior knowledge about technology, in ...

Social Interactions and Unemployment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper is concerned with social interactions and their importance for unemployment. A theoretical model is specified in which the social and psychological costs of unemployment depend upon the unemployment level. The theoretical analysis reveals social multiplier effects, and shows that multiple unemployment equilibria may emerge.

Assessing Automatic Approach-Avoidance Behavior in an Immersive Virtual Environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Virtual Reality, 2021
The use of virtual reality (VR) promises enormous potential for studying human behavior. While approach and avoidance tendencies have been explored in various areas of basic and applied psychology, such as attitude and emotion research, basic learning ...

Do We Adopt the Intentional Stance Toward Humanoid Robots?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
In daily social interactions, we need to be able to navigate efficiently through our social environment. According to Dennett (1971), explaining and predicting others’ behavior with reference to mental states (adopting the intentional stance) allows ...

The role of the DC component in human perception of AC–DC hybrid electric fields and a comparison with the AC component

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
As part of the energy transition in Germany, high-voltage overhead power lines will be operated using hybrid systems that combine alternating and direct current (AC and DC). The degree to which humans perceive hybrid electric fields (EFs) is dependent on

The role of the AC component in human perception of AC–DC hybrid electric fields

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Electric energy is essential to today’s society. To cope with global higher demand while minimizing land use, efficient high voltage direct current (HVDC) power lines are planned to be mounted on existing alternating current (AC) structures leading to ...
