Android robots that resemble humans closely, but not perfectly, can provoke negative feelings of dislike and eeriness in humans (the “Uncanny Valley” effect). The article investigates whether category confusion between the perceptual categories of “robot” and “human” contributes to Uncanny Valley aversion. The results suggest category confusion does not explain the Uncanny Valley effect. |
