As AI technologies progress, social acceptance of AI agents including intelligent virtual agents and robots is getting to be even more important for more applications of AI in human society. One way to improve the relationship between humans and anthropomorphic agents is to have humans empathize with the agents. By empathizing, humans take positive and kind actions toward agents, and emphasizing makes it easier for humans to accept agents. In this study, we focused on self-disclosure from agents to humans in order to realize anthropomorphic agents that elicit empathy from humans. Then, we experimentally investigated the possibility that an agent's self-disclosure facilitates human empathy. We formulate hypotheses and experimentally analyze and discuss the conditions in which humans have more empathy for agents. This experiment was conducted with a three-way mixed plan, and the factors were the agents' appearance (human, robot), self-disclosure (high-relevance self-disclosure, low-relevance self-disclosure, no self-disclosure), and empathy before and after a video stimulus. An analysis of variance was performed using data from 576 participants. As a result, we found that the appearance factor did not have a main effect, and self-disclosure, which is highly relevant to the scenario used, facilitated more human empathy with statistically significant difference. We also found that no self-disclosure suppressed empathy. These results support our hypotheses.

通过拟人化代理人的自我披露促进人类同理心

随着人工智能技术的进步,包括智能虚拟代理和机器人在内的人工智能代理的社会接受度对于人工智能在人类社会中的更多应用变得越来越重要。改善人类与拟人代理之间关系的一种方法是让人类与代理产生共鸣。通过移情,​​人类对代理采取积极和善意的行动,而强调使人类更容易接受代理。在这项研究中,我们专注于从代理到人类的自我披露,以实现能引起人类同理心的拟人化代理。然后,我们通过实验研究了代理的自我披露促进人类同理心的可能性。我们提出假设并通过实验分析和讨论人类对代理人有更多同情的条件。本实验采用三向混合方案进行,因素为代理的外观(人、机器人)、自我披露(高相关性自我披露、低相关性自我披露、无自我披露)、以及在视频刺激前后的同理心。使用来自 576 名参与者的数据进行了方差分析。结果,我们发现外观因素没有主要影响,与所使用的场景高度相关的自我披露促进了更多的人类同理心,具有统计学显着差异。我们还发现,没有自我表露会抑制同理心。这些结果支持我们的假设。以及在视频刺激前后的同理心。使用来自 576 名参与者的数据进行了方差分析。结果,我们发现外观因素没有主要影响,与所使用的场景高度相关的自我披露促进了更多的人类同理心,具有统计学显着差异。我们还发现,没有自我表露会抑制同理心。这些结果支持我们的假设。以及在视频刺激前后的同理心。使用来自 576 名参与者的数据进行了方差分析。结果,我们发现外观因素没有主要影响,与所使用的场景高度相关的自我披露促进了更多的人类同理心,具有统计学显着差异。我们还发现,没有自我表露会抑制同理心。这些结果支持我们的假设。
