论文摘要
作为教育和社会伴侣，社会机器人越来越多地引入儿童生活中，但对于如何最好地将这些产品引入其环境中知之甚少。媒体中“拆箱”现象的出现表明，引入是产生初始印象的技术采用的关键。为了更好地理解在儿童社会机器人的背景下设计积极的拆箱经验的这种现象，我们对8至13岁的儿童家庭进行了三项现场研究：（1）探索性的自由活动（$ n = 12 $）； （2）一个共同设计的会话（$ n = 11 $），该会话告知了原型盒的开发和精选的拆箱体验； （3）评估儿童经历的用户研究（$ n = 9 $）。我们的发现表明，通过设计创造性的美学体验，可以改善社交机器人的拆箱经验，该体验吸引了儿童在社交上引导初始互动并促进积极的儿童射击关系。
Social robots are increasingly introduced into children's lives as educational and social companions, yet little is known about how these products might best be introduced to their environments. The emergence of the "unboxing" phenomenon in media suggests that introduction is key to technology adoption where initial impressions are made. To better understand this phenomenon toward designing a positive unboxing experience in the context of social robots for children, we conducted three field studies with families of children aged 8 to 13: (1) an exploratory free-play activity ($n=12$); (2) a co-design session ($n=11$) that informed the development of a prototype box and a curated unboxing experience; and (3) a user study ($n=9$) that evaluated children's experiences. Our findings suggest the unboxing experience of social robots can be improved through the design of a creative aesthetic experience that engages the child socially to guide initial interactions and foster a positive child-robot relationship.
