About
Nicole Karpinsky-Mosely is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on the psychological and social dimensions of trust in autonomous systems. Her work explores how robots can be effectively integrated into sensitive, high-stakes environments, such as peacekeeping missions, where human perceptions of reliability and safety are paramount. In her most-cited paper, "Cross-cultural trust of robot peacekeepers as a function of dialog, appearance, responsibilities, and onboard weapons" (2020), Karpinsky-Mosely investigates how factors like communication style, physical design, and the presence of weaponry shape trust across different cultural contexts. This study, which has garnered 4 citations, provides critical insights for designing robots that are both effective and socially acceptable in diverse global settings. Her contributions are particularly notable for bridging engineering and social science, offering a nuanced understanding of how technology must adapt to human values and expectations. Karpinsky-Mosely’s work is essential reading for anyone interested in the ethical and practical challenges of deploying robots in roles that require delicate human judgment.
