Effects of Privacy Warning on the Intention to Disclose Personal Information During Interaction with a Robot in Public Spaces

Social robots in public spaces can potentially gather personal data. This leads to privacy concerns and prompts users to consider whether to disclose their information to the robot during interaction with the robot. This paper aims to explore the effects of privacy warnings on people’s intentions to...

We propose a model to estimate individuals’ disclosure intentions toward a robot and evaluate the impact of privacy warnings during interaction.

However, there is no significant difference in disclosure between participants who interacted with a robot with privacy warnings and those who interacted with a robot without privacy warnings. Overall, disclosure behavior does not significantly differ between the two groups, suggesting that privacy warnings do not effectively reduce disclosure information.Springer Nature2025info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2445/222306Articles publicats en revistes (Empresa)reponame:Dipòsit Digital de la UBinstname:Universidad de BarcelonaInglésVersió postprint del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.1007/s12369-025-01244-3International Journal of Social Robotics, 2025, vol. 17, p. 1055-1073https://doi.org/10.1007/s12369-025-01244-3(c) Springer Nature, 2025info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:diposit.ub.edu:2445/2223062026-05-27T06:46:51Z
