About
Rashid Heidarimoghadam is a rising scholar at the intersection of human-robot interaction (HRI), industrial psychology, and workplace technology adoption. His research focuses on understanding the psychological and social factors that shape workers’ willingness to collaborate with robots, particularly in the context of Industry 4.0. Heidarimoghadam’s most cited work, “Insights into the relationship between usability and willingness to use a robot in the future workplaces” (2022, 29 citations), reveals how trust mediates the link between robot usability and adoption, while also showing that age and attitudes toward STARA (Smart Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Algorithms) moderate this relationship. This study provides critical guidance for designing robots that are both usable and trusted by diverse workforces. He has also developed a novel stress measurement tool specifically for HRI contexts (2024) and explored how personality traits—extending the emic/etic framework—influence robot acceptance (2024). By bridging human factors engineering with organizational behavior, Heidarimoghadam’s work offers practical insights for creating human-centered automation strategies, ensuring that technological progress does not outpace human readiness.
