    Categorizing Social Robots with Respect to Dimensions Relevant to Ethical, Social and Legal Implications
    (i-com: Vol. 19, No. 1, 2020) Störzinger, Tobias; Carros, Felix; Wierling, Anne; Misselhorn, Catrin; Wieching, Rainer
    The aim of this paper is to suggest a framework for categorizing social robots with respect to four dimensions relevant to an ethical, legal and social evaluation. We argue that by categorizing them thusly, we can circumvent problematic evaluations of social robots that are often based on overly broad and abstract considerations. Instead of questioning, for example, whether social robots are ethically good or bad in general, we instead propose that different configurations of (and combinations thereof) the suggested dimensions entail different paradigmatic challenges with respect to ethical, legal and social issues (ELSI). We therefore encourage practitioners to consider these paradigmatic challenges when designing social robots to find creative design solutions.

    Empowering Citizen Science Through Digital Technologies: New Participatory Approaches to Data Collection, Sharing, and Analysis
    (Mensch und Computer 2022 - Workshopband, 2022) Pumplun, Luisa; Wagner, Amina; Störzinger, Tobias; Fecho, Mariska; Buxmann, Peter; Misselhorn, Catrin
    This workshop revolves around citizen science as an approach that allows people to collect data, share it with scientists, and actively participate in its analysis via modern digital technologies. In recent decades, Internet users have generated ever increasing amounts of personal data, e.g., through the use of mobile devices, wearables, or social networks. At the latest since the outbreak of the Covid 19 pandemic, it is clear that citizens are willing to donate this data for a good cause and in particular to promote science. Beyond donating data, citizens are increasingly involved in other phases of the research process, such as data analysis. This draws citizens and scientists closer together and blurs boundaries between the otherwise separated parties. Beyond the promise of larger data sets and more effective data analysis, however, citizen science has its downsides, especially when it comes to broad citizen participation through digital technologies. For example, key issues such as ensuring data privacy or quality are still unresolved. Therefore, the workshop will address the advantages and disadvantages of digitally enabled citizen science, the use of advanced digital technologies to engage people in research, and specifically data donation, which has been of particular interest in research and practice recently. We invite researchers to submit contributions in the area of digitally enabled citizen science to further develop this branch of research with respect to ethical, legal, and technical concerns, among others. We will also host a panel discussion with several experts from different disciplines on the special interest topic data donation to share ideas and discuss how this type of citizen science can be realized. We intend to use the results of this workshop as a starting point for further discussion, research, and steps towards participatory science.
