Research interests

• Trust in automation:
  o    Dynamic trust processes in human-machine interaction
  o    Psychological variables influencing perception, evaluation and interaction with technical systems
  o    Emphasis on the role of user personality
• Human-robot interaction:
  o    Person- and system-related influences on the interaction with (service) robots
  o    Human-centered design processes in human-robot interaction
• Driver-vehicle cooperation: Psychological investigation of user perception and decision making as well as human-centered design of highly automated vehicles
• Anthropomorphism: Design and consequences of human-like design of automated systems
