(2018) : Ethical and Social Considerations for the Introduction of Human-Centered Technologies at Work: 2018 IEEE Workshop on Advanced Robotics and its Social Impacts (ARSO): Genoa, Italy: IEEE Robotics & Automation Society, S. 131-138
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/ARSO.2018.8625830 Abstract: Human-centered technologies such as collaborative robots, exoskeletons, and wearable sensors are rapidly spreading in industry and manufacturing because of their intrinsic potential at assisting workers and improving their working conditions. The deployment of these technologies, albeit inevitable, poses several ethical and societal issues. Guidelines for ethically aligned design of autonomous and intelligent systems do exist, however we argue that ethical recommendations must necessarily be complemented by an analysis of the social impact of these technologies. In this paper, we report on our preliminary studies on the opinion of factory workers and of people outside this environment on human-centered technologies at work. In light of these studies, we discuss ethical and social considerations for deploying these technologies in a way that improves acceptance.

(2017) : An intervening ethical governor for a robot mediator in patient-caregiver relationship: Implementation and evaluation: 2017 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA): Marina Bay Sands, Singapore: IEEE Robotics & Automation Society, S. 2936-2942
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/ICRA.2017.7989340 Abstract: A robot mediator can enhance the quality of patient care in a health care context. Patients with Parkinson’s disease can experience difficulties in precisely expressing their emotions due to the loss of control of their facial musculature, leading to their stigmatization by caregivers. To remedy this challenge, a robot mediator can be inserted into a patient-caregiver relationship. In this context, it is essential to handle the ethical issues of neglect to ensure human dignity. In an earlier paper [19], we proposed an intervening ethical governor (IEG) model, which enables a robot to ethically intervene in a situation where patients or caregivers go across accepted ethical boundaries. In this paper, we show how the IEG model can be implemented and applied in a real robotics system. In addition, by conducting interviews with the target population (adults 60 years of age or older), we evaluate the current intervention rules in the model, discuss potential improvements to the model, and consider uses of the model in real clinical contexts.

(2016): Social and Legal Aspects of the Educational Support of Adolescents with Deviant Behavior. In: International Journal of Environmental and Science Education 11 (11), S. 4768-4781. Online verfügbar unter http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ1114877.pdf
Abstract: The purpose of the study is to consider the problem of the organization of working with adolescents with deviant behavior through the development and implementation of their psychological and pedagogical support based on student-centered and system approaches. Holistic application of components of psychological and pedagogical support (diagnostic, developmental and correctional) we consider as an open system that interacts with the social environment. The authors determine that modern models of deviant behavior correlation ought to focus on creating the conditions that allow the child to build their own system of relations with the world, other people, himself and independently to overcome difficulties; moreover, they should include reflexive and analytical approach to the process and the result of psychological and pedagogical support. Experienced and experimental work on the implementation of psychological and pedagogical support of adolescents with deviant behavior in secondary school allowed us to make a conclusion about the effectiveness of using a specially designed program of psychological and pedagogical support of adolescent with deviant behavior with a view to its correction.

(2016) : Investigation of appropriate response time for an animal type robot: 2016 25th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN): New York City, USA: IEEE, S. 331-334
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/ROMAN.2016.7745151 Abstract: Robot therapy, interaction with animal type robots, is expected to have psychological, physiological and social effects as well as animal therapy. However, design method for therapeutic robots is not examined enough yet. Especially, physical interaction (e.g. touch and hug) is key point of the robot; however appropriate behaviors are veiled. In this research, we tried to investigate when the robot should respond during physical interaction between human and robot.

Abstract: Current approaches to supporting awareness in computer-mediated collaboration appear to fall short in two ways - (1) they focus primarily on synchronous collaborations among individuals working on a shared task, and (2) they do not sufficiently take account of the situated and socially mediated nature of work practices. This paper explores an alternative approach to awareness support in computer-mediated collaboration, which focuses on understanding and supporting awareness of activity at the work practice level, and enables coordination among individuals working on separate tasks across communities of practice. We describe a study that suggests how an understanding of the ontological, stereotyped, and situated aspects of human activity leads to awareness support at the work practice level. We outline a set of guidelines for supporting practice-centred awareness in system design, and demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach in enabling decision support among clinicians working separately across boundaries of communities of practice.

(1996): The Culturally Informed Functional Assessment (CIFA) Interview. A strategy for cross-cultural behavioral practice. In: Cognitive and Behavioral Practice 3 (2), S. 215-233. DOI: 10.1016/S1077-7229(96)80015-0
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/S1077-7229(96)80015-0 Abstract: Presents a conceptual framework for culturally informed cognitive behavioral assessment and therapy, and offers practical step by step guidelines for conducting functional assessment in a cross-cultural therapy situation. The proposed Culturally Informed Functional Assessment Interview is then applied to the case of an intercultural marital couple with a presenting problem of communication difficulties.

(1990): "Habits", "Frames" und "Rational Choice". Die Reichweite von Theorien der rationalen Wahl (am Beispiel der Erklarung des Befragtenverhaltens). In: Zeitschrift fur Soziologie 19 (4), S. 231-247
Abstract: Discusses the breadth of theories of rational choice. It is first pointed out that rational-choice explanations of social processess have frequently been criticized in the social sciences by pointing out that they presuppose an optimally informed and maximation-oriented actor. Therefore, traditional action and phenomena related to the definition of the situation principally cannot be assessed with this approach. It is shown that orientations of action toward routines (habits) or the situational dominance of specific goals and codes (frameworks) can be conceived as special cases of the theory of rational choice. In this theoretical concept, it is then possible to explain why institutions are often very resistant to environmental changes: because the actors know how to deal rationally with their bounded rationality. The theoretical reconstruction is illustrated with examples of respondent behavior in interviews. Die Reichweite von Theorien der rationalen Wahl wird erortert. Zunachst wird darauf hingewiesen, dass "Rational-Choice"-Erklarungen sozialer Prozesse in den Sozialwissenschaften haufig mit dem Hinweis kritisiert worden sind, sie setzten einen perfekt informierten und kalkulierenden Akteur voraus. Traditionales Handeln und Phanomene der Definition der Situation seien daher mit diesem Ansatz prinzipiell nicht zu erfassen. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Orientierung des Handelns an Routinen (habits) bzw. die situationelle Dominanz bestimmter Ziele und Codes (frames) als Spezialfalle der Theorie der rationalen Wahl konzipierbar sind. In dieser theoretischen Fassung wird dann auch erklarbar, warum Institutionen gegenuber Anderungen in der Umwelt oft sehr resistent sind. Deswegen namlich, weil die Akteure mit ihrer "bounded rationality" rational umzugehen verstehen. Die theoretische Rekonstruktion wird am Beispiel des Befragtenverhaltens im Interview illustriert. zitiert von 467
