Stereotype Content Model

Stereotype Content Model

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:

Robotics and Human-Computer Interaction
Consumer Behavior and Marketing
Sustainable Technology and Circular Economy

Background:

The increasing prevalence of domestic robots necessitates strategies to mitigate their environmental impact.
Developing a secondary market for robotic systems is essential for reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
Consumer acceptance is a key factor in the successful adoption of second-hand robotic products.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate consumer attitudes towards purchasing second-hand robots in the United Kingdom.
To identify demographic factors influencing the acceptance of pre-owned robotic systems.
To explore the potential for a circular economy within the domestic robotics industry.

Main Methods:

A survey was conducted with participants in the United Kingdom to gauge their interest in second-hand robots.
Consumer demographics and prior experience with electronic devices were analyzed.
Purchasing interest was compared between new and second-hand robotic systems, with and without guarantees.

Main Results:

Second-hand robots with guarantees garnered purchasing interest comparable to new robotic systems.
Younger consumers (18-25 years old), women, and previous robot owners showed higher interest in both new and second-hand robots.
Prior experience with other second-hand electronics did not significantly influence interest in pre-owned robots, suggesting unique market dynamics for robotics.

Conclusions:

The robotics industry can foster a circular economy by developing certification standards for second-hand robots.
The market for second-hand robots shares similarities with the smartphone market, offering valuable insights for industry development.
Addressing consumer concerns, similar to those for other internet-enabled devices, can accelerate the acceptance of pre-owned robots and promote sustainability.
