"Don't stop believing" - Decoding belief dynamics in the brain: An ALE meta-analysis of neural correlates in belief formation and updating.

Neuroscience and biobehavioral reviews
Understanding how individuals form and update their beliefs is a fundamental question in cognitive and social psychology. Belief formation (BF) refers to the initial development of an individual's belief, while belief updating (BU) pertains to the re...

The Efficacy of Conversational AI in Rectifying the Theory-of-Mind and Autonomy Biases: Comparative Analysis.

JMIR mental health
BACKGROUND: The increasing deployment of conversational artificial intelligence (AI) in mental health interventions necessitates an evaluation of their efficacy in rectifying cognitive biases and recognizing affect in human-AI interactions. These bia...

"Tom and Pepper Lab". Robotics for cognitive stimulation and social skills: A preliminary study.

Asian journal of psychiatry
Dementia affects over 55 million people globally, with early cognitive decline, such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), often preceding neurodegenerative diseases. This decline impairs memory, attention, and Theory of Mind (ToM). Early intervention ...

The Minds We Make: A Philosophical Inquiry into Theory of Mind and Artificial Intelligence.

Integrative psychological & behavioral science
This theoretical paper offers an in-depth examination of the intersection between Theory of Mind (ToM) and artificial intelligence (AI), drawing on developmental psychology and philosophical analysis. By investigating the key developmental stages at ...

The roles of cognitive dissonance and normative reasoning in attributions of minds to robots.

Cognitive research: principles and implications
As a wide variety of intelligent technologies become part of everyday life, researchers have explored how people conceptualize agents that in some ways act and think like living things but are clearly machines. Much of this work draws upon the idea t...

Individual and team profiling to support theory of mind in artificial social intelligence.

Scientific reports
We describe an approach aimed at helping artificial intelligence develop theory of mind of their human teammates to support team interactions. We show how this can be supported through the provision of quantifiable, machine-readable, a priori informa...

The theory of mind and human-robot trust repair.

Scientific reports
Nothing is perfect and robots can make as many mistakes as any human, which can lead to a decrease in trust in them. However, it is possible, for robots to repair a human's trust in them after they have made mistakes through various trust repair stra...

A Developmental Cognitive Architecture for Trust and Theory of Mind in Humanoid Robots.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
As artificial systems are starting to be widely deployed in real-world settings, it becomes critical to provide them with the ability to discriminate between different informants and to learn from reliable sources. Moreover, equipping an artificial a...

Functional selectivity for social interaction perception in the human superior temporal sulcus during natural viewing.

NeuroImage
Recognizing others' social interactions is a crucial human ability. Using simple stimuli, previous studies have shown that social interactions are selectively processed in the superior temporal sulcus (STS), but prior work with movies has suggested t...

Visual behavior modelling for robotic theory of mind.

Scientific reports
Behavior modeling is an essential cognitive ability that underlies many aspects of human and animal social behavior (Watson in Psychol Rev 20:158, 1913), and an ability we would like to endow robots. Most studies of machine behavior modelling, howeve...
