Conversational Robots for Self-Reflection

We posit if a robot could be able to help people self-reflect through the use of conversation. To answer this, we designed and explored the use of a humanoid robot to support individual self-reflection and wellness. Our approach relies on simple interaction design to avoid complex expectations of the robot that could easily break, and achieve a robust reflective behavior.We focus on creating a fully stand-alone robot to be able to test it in people's homes and learn about their perceptions. We present an initial study where to learn about the feasibility of our design, if our robotic interaction design does work, if people can use it and what they think of it.
