Resumen

Durante los últimos años ha incrementado el desarrollo de robots sociales educativos. Estos robots favorecen vínculos afectivos positivos y aumentan el bienestar socioemocional de los estudiantes, sin embargo, tanto los niños como los adultos han demostrado potencial para tratar a los robots sociales de manera abusiva. Para lograr interacciones robot-humano favorables y mejorar las interacciones humanas surge la necesidad de crear comportamientos robóticos cada vez más empáticos al tiempo que se garanticen las condiciones óptimas de una educación orientada al crecimiento ético de los estudiantes. El objetivo de esta revisión es analizar qué componentes del diseño robótico facilitan o debilitan las interacciones socioemocionales entre los niños de edad preescolar y los robots antropomórficos. Se realizó una búsqueda exhaustiva en las bases de datos Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, IEEE Xplore y ACM Digital Library siguiendo los criterios establecidos en la declaración PRISMA. Los resultados sugieren que la apariencia de un robot destinado para niños en edad preescolar necesitaría equilibrar la "humanidad" y la "robotidad" para que ambos estimulen interacciones sociales placenteras y prevengan falsas creencias sobre las capacidades del robot, lo que probablemente disuadiría al niño de participar en conductas abusivas que podrían ser perjudiciales en otros contextos.
