Her most cited paper (14 citations) investigates the design and evaluation of extraversion in a shopping robot, demonstrating that a robot’s extroverted personality can enhance user engagement and acceptance. Her dissertation (3 citations) further examines how extroversion, humanoid appearance, and tactile interaction affect social acceptance. Ludewig’s contributions are notable for bridging robotics and social psychology, offering practical insights for creating more socially acceptable robots. Her work has implications for service robotics in retail and hospitality, where user-friendly, emotionally intelligent robots are increasingly in demand.
