Software and code for the research project: Interdependence and Communication Style in Human-Agent/Robot Teamwork

This repository was used to conduct an experiment with the aim of studying the effects of interdependence and robot communication style on human-robot teamwork. Human participants were presented with a virtual (urban search and rescue inspired) task and robot. Robot communication style varied between participants while interdependence between human and robot varied within participants. The goal for the human-robot team was to search and rescue all victims as soon as possible. We wanted to gain insights into the following: - How does robot communication style influence human-robot teamwork? - How does interdependence between human and robot influence human-robot teamwork? - How does interdependence influence the relationship between robot communication style and human-robot teamwork?

本数据集存储库用于开展一项实验，旨在探究相互依赖程度与机器人沟通风格对人机协作的影响。本实验招募人类受试者，为其设置一项受城市搜救任务启发的虚拟任务，并配备一台机器人搭档。机器人的沟通风格在不同受试者间存在差异，而人机间的相互依赖程度则在同一受试者的实验过程中发生变化。人机协作团队的目标为尽快搜寻并营救所有受困者。本研究旨在探究以下核心问题：
- 机器人沟通风格如何影响人机协作表现？
- 人机间的相互依赖程度如何影响人机协作表现？
- 相互依赖程度如何调节机器人沟通风格与人机协作表现之间的关联？
