Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.7K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Area of Science:

  • Auditory Neuroscience
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Robotics

Background:

  • Investigating speech perception in noisy environments often requires lengthy psychophysical tests.
  • Interactive social agents, like the NAO robot, could improve engagement during these tests.
  • However, robots may have limitations in sound quality and processing speed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the NAO robot's efficacy in presenting speech stimuli and collecting data for speech-in-speech perception tests.
  • To compare the NAO robot's performance against a standard computer interface.
  • To assess human-robot interaction and engagement during psychophysical testing.

Main Methods:

  • Normal-hearing adults completed speech-in-speech perception tests using either a computer or a NAO robot.
  • Stimuli included target sentences with keywords amidst competing speech at varying signal-to-noise ratios.
  • Speech intelligibility, data collection time, and human-robot interaction (using NARS and backchannels) were measured.

Main Results:

  • Speech intelligibility was comparable between the computer and NAO setups.
  • Data collection took longer with the NAO robot.
  • Participants exhibited higher engagement with the NAO robot, indicated by more backchannels, despite neutral attitudes towards robot social influence.

Conclusions:

  • The NAO robot shows potential as a tool for presenting speech materials and gathering psychophysical data for speech-in-speech perception.
  • While data collection duration is longer, increased engagement suggests benefits for certain testing scenarios.
  • Further research can explore optimizing robot parameters for efficient and effective psychophysical testing.
