In this paper, we present a framework for trust-aware sequential decision-making in human-robot team wherein the human agent’s trust robotic agent is dependent on reward obtained by team. We model problem as finite-horizon Markov Decision Process with of robot state variable. develop reward-based performance metric to drive update model, allowing make recommendations. conduct human-subject expe...

The occurrence of breakthrough infections with SARS-CoV-2 in vaccinated individuals argues against abandoning mitigation efforts such as social distancing. Some public health messages, however, promote vaccination by increasing psychological distress, which interferes Prosocial messages present an alternative approach that may avoid this problem. Accordingly, the study examined relation pandemi...

Online Social Networks (OSNs) have become an integral part of daily life in recent years. They have been used as a means for a rich variety of activities, such as seeking service providers or recommendations. In these activities, trust is one of the most important factors for participants’ decision-making process. Therefore, it is necessary and significant to predict the trust between two parti...

The performance of ad hoc networks depends on the cooperative and trust nature of the distributed nodes. To enhance security in ad hoc networks, it is important to evaluate the trustworthiness of other nodes without centralized authorities. In this paper, we present an information theoretic framework to quantitatively measure trust and model trust propagation in ad hoc networks. In the proposed...

In the field of Human Factors, concept trust in automation can help to explain how and why users interact with particular systems. One way examine is through task performance and/or behavioral observations. Previous work has identified several system-related moderators automation, such as reliability complexity. However, effects system certainty, i.e., knowledge that a machine regarding its own...

The promise of evidence-based management (EBMgt) is that educators and practitioners can access cumulative scientific information to guide their teaching and decision making. We argue that the EBMgt movement may be unable to live up to this promise to the extent that our cumulative scientific knowledge is not trustworthy. We review why the management discipline may not have trustworthy evidence...

A central element in the human notion of trust is to identify whom or what is under consideration. In the digital world, this is harder to achieve due to more or less trustworthy technical infrastructure between interacting parties. However, we argue that uncertain identification may enhance privacy protection. Pervasive computing – digital and real world becoming one – has also good sides: con...
