RESEARCH INTERESTS (for more information, see http://bit.ly/scs_projects)

Social cognition, Moral psychology, Human-robot interaction ❍ Moral judgments. Interplay between affective, cognitive, and

conceptual components of moral judgments, especially of blame, both as internal states and as social acts. Role of affect and emotions (e.g., anger) in moral judgment. The nature of guilt.

❍ Theory of mind. The elements of the folk-conceptual framework of mind and action and the role it plays in broader social cognition, especially people’s inferences of others’ mental states.

❍ Intentionality. How people judge the intentionality of others’ behavior; what role these judgments play in moral judgment.

❍ Folk explanations of behavior. When and how people explain their own and others’ behavior and what functions these explanations serve in social perception and interaction.

❍ Social and moral norms. How norms are cognitively represented, activated, learned, and updated; how norms can be extracted from text and images and implemented in computational systems.

❍ Human-robot interaction. People’s expectations of future robots; psychological mechanisms triggered by robot appearance (e.g., visual perspective taking); attempts to implement social-cognitive and moral competence in robots; conditions of optimal human-robot interaction (e.g., trust, explainability).
