About
Sandro Rubichi is a leading researcher in cognitive psychology and human-robot interaction, with a focus on understanding how humans perceive, collaborate with, and adapt to robotic systems. His work bridges experimental psychology and robotics, exploring the cognitive and social mechanisms underlying effective human-robot collaboration. His most-cited paper, "To collaborate or not to collaborate: understanding human-robot collaboration" (2022, 3 citations), critically examines the gap between the widespread deployment of collaborative robots and their suboptimal use, arguing that true collaboration requires leveraging the complementary strengths of humans and machines. This work has helped shape a more nuanced understanding of trust, joint action, and shared decision-making in human-robot teams. Beyond this, Rubichi has contributed to foundational studies on joint action and social cognition, often integrating insights from neuroscience and experimental psychology. His research is widely recognized for its practical implications in industrial and assistive robotics, and he is known for advancing interdisciplinary methods that inform both theoretical models and real-world applications. Rubichi’s work continues to influence how researchers and engineers design robots that are not just tools, but genuine collaborative partners.
