About

Fusheng Jia is an emerging researcher whose work sits at the intersection of human-robot interaction, social robotics, and user experience design. His scholarship focuses on understanding how the design characteristics of social robots shape user acceptance, experience, and privacy concerns — questions that are increasingly vital as robots become embedded in everyday social contexts. Jia's most influential contribution, a bibliometric analysis of social robot interaction design published in 2023, has garnered 32 citations, demonstrating its value as a foundational mapping of the field's research hotspots and future directions. By systematically synthesizing existing literature, this work provides researchers and designers with a structured overview of where the discipline has been and where it is heading. His 2024 study employing both PLS-SEM and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (FsQCA) to investigate how robot design features influence users' privacy concerns reflects a methodologically sophisticated approach, accumulating 14 citations in a short period. What distinguishes Jia's research is his commitment to rigorous, evidence-based methods and his ability to bridge empirical social science with practical design implications. For students entering the field of human-robot interaction, his work offers both a scholarly compass and a methodological model worth studying.
