As social robots are foreseen to become incrementally embedded in our society, it is crucial to deeply understand their potential influence on people’s behavior, especially in delicate contexts. Nonetheless, little is known about social robots’ capability to persuade people while resolving ethical problems. These do not have correct or wrong solutions: individuals solve them using their own values and moral principles, but they can still be influenced by peers. Hence, it is key to understand how individuals consider social robots’ ethical decisions. This paper presents preliminary results of an in-person user study where participants had to solve eight ethical dilemmas with the humanoid robot iCub. Our results demonstrate that social robots can influence people’s EDM, especially when they are not highly confident about their initial answers.
