Abstract

This chapter explores the use of social robots as storytellers to prevent bullying in preschoolers, focusing on the effects of embodiment and interactivity on story experience and efficiency. The research compares the impact of a physically embodied robotic storyteller with an audio book presentation, as well as the effects of interactive versus linear storytelling. The findings suggest that while both methods are effective in delivering anti-bullying narratives, the robotic storyteller significantly enhances children's empathy. Additionally, interactive storytelling increases bullying awareness, highlighting the potential of social robots in early childhood education and therapy. The studies provide a methodological framework for implementing robotic storytelling in bullying prevention, offering insights into the unique advantages of social robots in engaging and educating young children.
