Category processing and the human likeness dimension of the Uncanny Valley Hypothesis: Eye-tracking data [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 The Uncanny Valley Hypothesis (Mori, 1970) predicts that perceptual difficulty distinguishing between a humanlike object (e.g., lifelike prosthetic hand, mannequin) and its human counterpart evokes negative affect.

The human likeness dimension of the "uncanny valley hypothesis": behavioural and functional MRI findings. [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2011 The uncanny valley hypothesis (Mori, 1970) predicts differential experience of negative and positive affect as a function of human likeness. Affective experience of realistic humanlike robots and computer-generated characters (avatars) dominates uncanny ...

Perceptual and category processing of the Uncanny Valley hypothesis' dimension of human likeness: some methodological issues. [PDF]
J Vis Exp, 2013 Mori's Uncanny Valley Hypothesis(1,2) proposes that the perception of humanlike characters such as robots and, by extension, avatars (computer-generated characters) can evoke negative or positive affect (valence) depending on the object's degree of visual and behavioral realism along a dimension of human likeness (DHL) (Figure 1).

Attitude Towards Humanoid Robots and the Uncanny Valley Hypothesis [PDF]
Foundations of Computing and Decision Sciences, 2019 The main aim of the presented study was to check whether the well-established measures concerning the attitude towards humanoid robots are good predictors for the uncanny valley effect.

The Background Context Condition for the Uncanny Valley Hypothesis [PDF]
International Journal of Social Robotics, 2018 We present the results of the background context condition experiment for the uncanny valley hypothesis. Subjects were presented with 12 computer-generated 3D models in two background variants. For the first group 12 models were rendered on a neutral background (empty room) and for the second group the same models were rendered on a suitable background,

Uncanny valley for interactive social agents: An experimental study
Virtual Reality & Intelligent Hardware, 2022 The uncanny valley hypothesis states that users might experience eerie when interacting with almost but not fully human-like artificial characters. The advancements in artificial intelligence, robotics, and computer graphics have led to life-like virtual

International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 2016 AbstractThe uncanny valley (UV) hypothesis, which predicts that almost but not fully humanlike artificial characters elicit negative evaluations, has become increasingly influential. At the same time, the hypothesis has become associated with many computer-animated films that have aimed at high realism.

The uncanny valley effect and immune activation in virtual reality [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe uncanny valley effect describes a phenomenon where humanoid, almost lifelike virtual agents evoke feelings of discomfort in the observers. The Pathogen Avoidance Hypothesis proposes that these feelings are based on a cognitive mechanism that ...
