When we go for a walk with friends, we can observe an interesting effect: From step lengths to arm movements - our movements unconsciously align; they synchronize. Prior research found that this synchronization is a crucial aspect of human relations that strengthens social cohesion and trust. Generalizing from these findings in synchronization theory, we propose a dynamical approach that can be applied in the design of non-humanoid robots to increase trust. We contribute the results of a controlled experiment with 51 participants exploring our concept in a between-subjects design. For this, we built a prototype of a simple non-humanoid robot that can bend to follow human movements and vary the movement synchronization patterns. We found that synchronized movements lead to significantly higher ratings in an established questionnaire on trust between people and automation but did not influence the willingness to spend money in a trust game.

本文提出了一个探索性的研究，以了解人类的认知负荷，信任和拟人化之间的关系，在人机交互。为了理解这种关系，我们创建了一个\say{Matching the Pair}游戏，参与者可以与两种机器人类型之一合作，哈士奇或胡椒。我们的目标是了解人类是否会信任机器人作为队友，而在游戏的情况下，需要高水平的认知负荷。使用人形机器人与技术机器人，我们还研究了物理拟人化的影响，我们还测试了机器人出错率对后续判断和行为的影响。我们的研究结果表明，信任和认知负荷之间呈反比关系，这表明随着参与者认知负荷的增加，他们的信任度下降。我们还发现了机器人类型，错误率和参与者的信任评级之间的三重交互作用的影响。我们发现，参与者认为胡椒更值得信赖的哈士奇机器人相比，在玩游戏后，两个机器人在高错误率的条件下。相反，当哈士奇被描述为具有低错误率时，它被认为比胡椒更值得信赖。我们的研究结果是有趣的，并呼吁进一步调查的物理拟人化的影响，结合可变的错误率的机器人。
