Abstract

Previous studies have shown that observing the actions of a human model, but not those of a robot, can induce perseverative behaviors in young children, suggesting that children’s socio-cognitive abilities may lead to perseverative errors (“social transmission of disinhibition”). This study investigates how the social transmission of disinhibition occurs. Specifically, the authors examine whether a robot with human appearance (an android) triggers perseveration in young children and compare the effects with those induced by a human model. The results reveal that the android induces the social transmission of disinhibition. Additionally, children are more likely to be affected by the human model than by the android. The results suggest that behavioral cues (biological movement) may be important for the social transmission of disinhibition.
