Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

342
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

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...

Measures of Intelligence01:29

Measures of Intelligence

7.2K
Psychologists measure intelligence by using standardized tests that produce a score known as the intelligence quotient or IQ. To understand IQ tests, it's important to recognize the key principles behind their construction: validity, reliability, and standardization.
Validity refers to how well a test measures what it claims to measure. An intelligence test should accurately assess intelligence rather than another characteristic, like anxiety. Criterion validity is one way to evaluate this;...

Area of Science:

  • Human-Robot Interaction
  • Psychometrics
  • Robotics

Background:

  • User-related psychological dimensions significantly impact human-robot dynamics.
  • Understanding psychometric properties of assessment instruments is crucial for reliable and valid human-robot interaction research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review instruments for assessing psychological aspects of human-social and domestic robot relationships.
  • To summarize the psychometric properties and evidence quality of these instruments.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review following PRISMA guidelines across Scopus, PubMed, and IEEE Xplore.
  • Inclusion criteria focused on instruments assessing psychological dimensions for social/domestic robots, with validated psychometric properties.
  • Exclusion of studies on industrial robots, rescue robots, or solely technology/anthropomorphism validation.

Main Results:

  • 34 articles validated 27 instruments for psychological dimensions in human-social/domestic robot interactions.
  • Most studies focused on structural validity (89%) and internal consistency (96%), with inconsistent reporting of other psychometric properties.
  • No instruments evaluated measurement error or responsiveness; few were specifically designed for children, older adults, or healthcare contexts.

Conclusions:

  • Development of new, rigorously validated instruments is needed to assess psychological dimensions in human-robot relationships.
  • Broader consideration of psychometric properties is essential for reliable and valid measures in human-robot interaction.
  • This review focused on social and domestic robots, excluding instruments for other robot types.
