Dear all,
We are excited to announce that our workshop, Taking a Closer Look: Refining Trust and its Impact in HRI, will be held on March 11, 2024, at the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction 2024 in Boulder, Colorado, USA. Please see below the relevant information and a call for papers.
We look forward to your participation and contributions and seeing you at HRI 2024!
Best regards,
Trust in HRI organizers:

Taking a Closer Look: Refining Trust and its Impact in HRI
About the Workshop:
With the advancement of robots and AI, researchers have pondered over human-robot coexistence as robots gradually participate in human life. However, some people still hold concerns about using or living with robots and doubt robot’s capability and reliability. To facilitate user acceptance and satisfaction of robots, understanding the impact of potential factors on user trust toward robots is crucial. This workshop aims to provide a platform for HRI researchers, practitioners, and students from diverse disciplines to engage in a discussion to define/refine the construct of trust, understand different factors that influence trust in HRI and their impacts, and measure various aspects of trust. The workshop will contribute to building a solid research community on this crucial construct and guiding future research and development of better human-robot interaction.
Topics of Interest (include but are not limited to):
- Trust as a complicated construct
- Trust as a State vs. Trait (attitude)
- Cognitive trust vs. affective trust
- Trust as a dynamic status (trust calibration)
- Artificial trust
- Factors that influence trust
- Human-related factors: emotions, personality, attitude (TAM), interaction types
- Robot-related factors: interfaces, appearance/form factors, expressions, movements (distance/proxemics, speed), personal space, performance, reliability
- Contextual factors: task types, hierarchy, contexts
- Measuring trust
- Subjective, behavioral, and neurophysiological metrics
- Dynamic measure of trust as a function of time/interaction
- Building an open-source dataset
Submission Guidelines:
We invite authors to submit their contributions as 1-3 page position papers, excluding references, in the HRI 2024 extended abstract format by the end of February 2, 2024 (AOE). Position papers must describe one or more theoretical approaches to trust in HRI. Depending on the number of position papers accepted, participants will be invited to prepare a short talk or poster to present at the workshop. We will also allow passive participants who will attend the workshop without an accepted position paper.
All submissions should be made as a .pdf file following the general ACM SIG format (“sigconf”, double column format), the same format as the full paper and LBR submissions. Templates can be found here or on Overleaf directly. Submissions are not required to be anonymized.
Important Dates:
- Submission Deadline: February 2, 2024
- Notification of Acceptance: February 16, 2024
- Camera-ready Deadline: February 23, 2024
- Workshop Day: March 11, 2024
All deadlines are at 23:59 Anywhere on Earth (AOE) time.
