About
Meggy Hayotte is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of human-robot interaction and psychometrics, with a particular focus on how people perceive and relate to social robots. Her most notable contribution is the development and validation of the Social Robot Anthropomorphism Scale (SRA), a psychometric tool designed to measure the degree to which individuals attribute human-like characteristics to robots. This scale, validated in a French sample and published in 2022, has already garnered 23 citations, underscoring its relevance as a foundational instrument in the field. By providing a reliable method for quantifying anthropomorphism, Hayotte’s work enables more nuanced studies of user acceptance, trust, and emotional engagement with robotic systems. Her research is critical for designers and engineers aiming to create more intuitive and socially acceptable robots, as well as for psychologists exploring the cognitive and cultural factors that shape human-robot relationships. Hayotte’s contributions are paving the way for more empathetic and effective human-robot collaboration, making her a key voice in the evolving dialogue on social robotics.
