About
Tanvi Vuradi is a rising scholar in human-robot interaction, with a focused interest in how social robots communicate with young users, particularly in educational and developmental contexts. Her work addresses a critical and underexplored challenge: the delivery of negative feedback by social robots. In her highly cited 2023 paper, "How Should a Social Robot Deliver Negative Feedback Without Creating Distance Between the Robot and Child Users?" (2 citations), Vuradi investigates the delicate balance between effective behavioral guidance and maintaining relational closeness. She argues that while negative feedback can shape user behavior in human-AI interactions, its delivery is fraught with social risk. Her research provides early, foundational insights into design strategies that allow robots to offer corrective feedback without alienating child users—a key concern for long-term engagement and trust. Though early in her career, Vuradi’s work is already shaping conversations around emotionally intelligent and pedagogically sound robot design. Her contributions are particularly valuable for researchers developing assistive technologies for education, therapy, and child development, where feedback quality is paramount.
