机器人拟人化在提高消费者信任感和亲密度等方面发挥着重要的作用。因此,随着人工智能技术的逐步成熟,越来越多的企业引进了拟人化服务机器人。本文探讨了服务机器人外观拟人化与消费者使用意愿之间的关系,并剖析了外观拟人化程度对于不同社会阶层消费者的差异性影响。本文通过3个实验,首次提出了服务机器人外形拟人化程度对于消费者使用意愿的倒U形影响以及感知智能在其中的驱动作用,验证了消费者所处的社会阶层对其感知智能和使用意愿的影响。具体而言,低社会阶层的消费者对外观拟人化程度较低的服务机器人的感知智能水平较高,其使用意愿也较高;而高社会阶层的消费者对外观拟人化程度较高的服务机器人的感知智能水平较高,其使用意愿也较高。本研究为企业在提供智能服务的过程中如何更好地了解消费者的心理感知、减少服务机器人应用的负面效应和扩大服务机器人应用的正面效应提供了有效的指导。
