About

Cyril Marx investigates the intersection of human-robot interaction, social robotics, and performance psychology, with a particular focus on how robotic feedback influences human motivation and well-being. His most-cited work, "The Critical Robot: Impact of Performance Feedback on Intrinsic Motivation, Self-Esteem and Psychophysiology in Human–Robot Interaction" (2024, 5 citations), examines how anthropomorphic robots delivering performance feedback affect intrinsic motivation, self-esteem, and psychophysiological responses in professional settings. This research addresses a critical gap in understanding the psychological impact of collaborative robots on human workers, revealing that the social presence of robots can significantly alter emotional and motivational states. Marx's contributions are notable for bridging robotics engineering with psychological theory, offering empirical insights into designing more human-centered robotic systems. His work has implications for workplace automation, educational technology, and therapeutic robotics, where feedback delivery is crucial. By combining psychophysiological measures with subjective self-reports, Marx provides a nuanced view of human-robot dynamics, establishing himself as an emerging voice in the field of socially interactive robotics and human factors engineering.
