About

Maor Rosenberg is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of developmental psychology, human-robot interaction, and artificial intelligence. His work centers on how social robots can foster cognitive and emotional growth in humans, particularly through the mechanisms of mindset and curiosity. Rosenberg’s most influential contribution, "Growing Growth Mindset with a Social Robot Peer" (2017), has garnered 137 citations and demonstrates how a robot peer can effectively instill a growth mindset—the belief that effort and perseverance drive success—in learners, challenging fixed mindset beliefs that hinder achievement. This work has profound implications for educational technology and personalized learning. In "Expressive Cognitive Architecture for a Curious Social Robot" (2021), Rosenberg advances artificial curiosity by designing robots that mimic developmental psychology principles, enabling them to maximize learning progress through expressive, curious behaviors. This architecture bridges the gap between social robots and autonomous learning, paving the way for robots that adapt and engage in real-world settings like schools and homes. Rosenberg’s research not only pushes the boundaries of human-robot collaboration but also offers practical tools for enhancing human potential through technology.
