1. The final report is supposed to include the following:

  • Introduction
  • Background and/or Related Work  (Should include some of the following)
    • Background related to the topic (robotics, psychology, technical,…)
    • Related work (previous work done in the same are, especially in robotics)
    • Specifying the possible gaps in the previous work and intro to your project
  • Method (Should include some of the following)
    • Research Questions
    • Hypotheses
    • Experimental Measures
    • Experimental Design
    • Procedure
  • Results (Should include some of the following)
    • Participants Statistics
    • Statistical methods
    • Analyses per each hypothesis
  • Discussion (should include)
    • Discussions per each hypothesis
    • General discussion
  • Conclusions (should include)
    • General conclusions
    • Possible future works

 

Note: There is no strict limit on the number of pages or format but you can consider it to be something similar to a conference submission. As a result, you can use ACM SIG format for writing your report.

Overleaf: https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/acm-conference-proceedings-master-template/pnrfvrrdbfwt use "sample-sigconf.tex"


 

2. The video submission should include the following:

  • Description of the system and development on the robot
  • Description of the interaction (ex. pretest, game, posttest, questionnaire,…)
  • A sample interaction (either with one of the participants or the team members)

 

Note: There is no strict limit on the length of the video, but try to make it no longer than 5 minutes and as long as it covers the required content, any format you choose to describe your project is fine.

 

3. For groups who didn’t manage to run their experiment with a sufficient number of participants, try to run the experiment this week with some students from GAIPS lab or people from your team, then give me your data, and I will use a randomizer to create more data points for you and give it back to you for analyses.
