About
Yasmina Lembert is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of social robotics and developmental psychology, with a primary focus on autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Her work explores how children with ASD interact with robotic agents, particularly in contexts involving social decision-making and resource sharing. In her most-cited study, "Dictator Game with a Robot in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Sharing is Predicted by Positive Attributions Towards the Agent" (2024), Lembert demonstrates that children with ASD are more willing to share resources with a robot when they hold positive perceptions of the agent. This finding challenges assumptions about social deficits in ASD and highlights the potential of robots as mediators in therapeutic and educational settings. Though early in her career, her work has already garnered attention for its novel integration of experimental economics and human-robot interaction. Lembert’s research offers critical insights into designing assistive technologies that leverage robotic agents to foster social engagement and prosocial behavior in neurodiverse populations, marking her as an emerging leader in inclusive robotics.
