in our daily lives. Research shows that, while some users trust such technology even with sensitive information, others refuse to rely on this technology for support. When explaining trust in such technology, existing human-technology trust approaches are overlooking factors like users\u2019 emotional states. This three-part experimental study in a real-world setting examines the influence emotional states have on trusting a faulty chatbot. Participants interacted with a chatbot in part one of the study to schedule an appointment some days later for part two. Upon arrival for part two, participants were informed of a mistake in scheduling their appointment. The experimental manipulation consisted of fault attribution to the chatbot in one group, whereas no attribution to fault in the other group. In part three, participants then chose to either schedule a new appointment using the same chatbot or email. A total of N= 58 participants participated in the first part of the study, while a total of N= 30 participants completed the study. The main finding indicates that a more positive momentary emotional state towards the chatbot was related to higher self-reported trust, even after the chatbot made a mistake. However, trust did not affect trusting behavior afterwards. Considering these findings, we contribute theoretical advances to the existing trust research landscape in a setting relevant for everyday life. We also discuss potential explanations for the resulting pattern of effects and implications on chatbot design for the role of emotional states when trusting chatbots.", "bibtexKey": "berberena2024impact" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/2a919c9c87b543169f309685c89305d7e/iris", "tags" : [ "srf_iris","iris","reflection" ], "intraHash" : "a919c9c87b543169f309685c89305d7e", "interHash" : "61571781a78a469d2e1b654c01988c9a", "label" : "Performance Expectancy Benefits Acceptance Towards Digital Self-Control Support", "user" : "iris", "description" : "", "date" : "2024-08-25 17:04:36", "changeDate" : "2024-08-25 17:04:36", "count" : 3, "pub-type": "preprint", "journal": "SSRN", "year": "2024", "url": "https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4924933", "author": [ "Maria Wirzberger","Laura Bareiß","Veronika Herbst","Adrian Stock","Jule Kembitzky" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"}, {"first" : "Laura", "last" : "Bareiß"}, {"first" : "Veronika", "last" : "Herbst"}, {"first" : "Adrian", "last" : "Stock"}, {"first" : "Jule", "last" : "Kembitzky"} ], "abstract": "Advanced digitization and related information overload foster the prevalence of disruptive stimuli that constantly challenge people in learning and working contexts. The high variety of potential distractions increasingly reduces attention and subsequently minimizes capacities for productive study and work habits. Addressing this challenge, digital tools can support people with resisting situational temptations and keeping focused on meaningful tasks by incorporating features such as timing, rewards, or feedback. While they hold benefits for users\u2019 focused behavior, distraction management, and motivation, existing research also shows hesitation towards using such tools at all. Taking the recently introduced software focUS as an example, the present research investigates in more detail, which factors can foster or hinder users\u2019 acceptance towards digital self-control support. A sample of 96 adult volunteers completed an online survey based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to identify under what circumstances they would be willing to use the previously introduced software tool.

Experiences at home influence students\u2019 learning fundamentally. However, cultural diversity in classrooms as well as issues such as stereotypes and biases have yet to be addressed in the German education system. School materials i.e., do many times not reflect the cultural diversity in modern classrooms, portraying and promoting stereotypes and biases. These (unconscious) biases are at the center of the problem and have yet to gain the attention and importance they deserve. Since stereotypes and biases are learned constructs, it is of utmost importance to provide tools to unlearn/relearn incorrect constructs and form new synapsis. The existing challenges have thus far failed to be addressed by generic teaching techniques and pedagogy. A new strategy and teaching approach in education is needed to address these issues in an attempt to reduce the current achievement gaps across students of different cultural backgrounds and to incorporate experiences of all students in classroom interactions. In this workshop, we will introduce an interactive teaching and learning approach to promote reflection in culturally responsive teaching (CRT). The instructional design method of Thiagi will serve as an innovative tool to successfully implement CRT, raise awareness of existing stereotypes/ (unconscious) biases, and thus model a way to reduce stereotype-threat. By integrating diversity in form of CRT in the curriculum, we can fundamentally change existing patterns and enable every student to understand and connect to academic content.", "venue" : "EARLI 2021 - Online", "bibtexKey": "berberena2021bringing" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/29e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c/iris", "tags" : [ "reflection" ], "intraHash" : "9e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c", "interHash" : "4212f20e345f76e406a0504889efee7c", "label" : "Embedding reflective learning opportunities in teaching about intelligent systems", "user" : "iris", "description" : "", "date" : "2023-10-31 09:19:43", "changeDate" : "2023-10-31 09:19:43", "count" : 3, "pub-type": "conference", "booktitle": "Reflection on intelligent systems: Towards a cross-disciplinary definition", "year": "2022", "url": "", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "editor": [ "Gabriella Lapesa","Lukas Erhard","Curtis Runstedler","Sierra Kaiser" ], "editors": [ {"first" : "Gabriella", "last" : "Lapesa"}, {"first" : "Lukas", "last" : "Erhard"}, {"first" : "Curtis", "last" : "Runstedler"}, {"first" : "Sierra", "last" : "Kaiser"} ], "bibtexKey": "berberena2022embedding" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/2cdabb7b145cb83118e423bf79264180a/iris", "tags" : [ "iris","reflection" ], "intraHash" : "cdabb7b145cb83118e423bf79264180a", "interHash" : "a05c1db34de016dddeb96988b7f59802", "label" : "Hooked on artificial agents: a systems thinking perspective", "user" : "iris", "description" : "", "date" : "2023-10-30 08:40:05", "changeDate" : "2023-10-31 09:19:03", "count" : 5, "pub-type": "article", "journal": "Frontiers in Behavioral Economics", "year": "2023", "url": "", "author": [ "Ivan Ðula","Tabea Berberena","Ksenia Kepliner","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Ivan", "last" : "Ðula"}, {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Ksenia", "last" : "Kepliner"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "volume": "2","pages": "1223281","abstract": "Following recent technological developments in the artificial intelligence space, artificial agents are increasingly taking over organizational tasks typically reserved for humans.

To induce this process, raise awareness and confront them with potential (unconscious) biases and stereotypes, 404 university students in teacher training and vocational education completed an Implicit Association Test (IAT) on skin color before watching a lecture discussing biases and stereotypes.

In doing so, we create a powerful visual tool that can be used to ground discussions about the impact artificial agents have on organizations and humans within them.", "doi" : "10.3389/frbhe.2023.1223281", "bibtexKey": "dula2023hooked" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/29e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c/llis", "tags" : [ "awareness","bias","cognition","iris","learning","llis","myown","reflection","stereotype" ], "intraHash" : "9e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c", "interHash" : "4212f20e345f76e406a0504889efee7c", "label" : "Embedding reflective learning opportunities in teaching about intelligent systems", "user" : "llis", "description" : "", "date" : "2023-09-23 09:34:45", "changeDate" : "2024-08-25 16:33:06", "count" : 3, "pub-type": "conference", "booktitle": "Reflection on intelligent systems: Towards a cross-disciplinary definition", "year": "2022", "url": "https://www.iris.uni-stuttgart.de/documents/Abstracts_2022_10/Abstract_RISING_Berberena_Wirzberger_Update.pdf", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "editor": [ "Gabriella Lapesa","Lukas Erhard","Curtis Runstedler","Sierra Kaiser" ], "editors": [ {"first" : "Gabriella", "last" : "Lapesa"}, {"first" : "Lukas", "last" : "Erhard"}, {"first" : "Curtis", "last" : "Runstedler"}, {"first" : "Sierra", "last" : "Kaiser"} ], "bibtexKey": "berberena2022embedding" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/24b1265f226d59f31e7fa5f7777403abe/llis", "tags" : [ "bias","cognition","instruction","iris","learning","llis","myown","reflection","stereotype" ], "intraHash" : "4b1265f226d59f31e7fa5f7777403abe", "interHash" : "205f5cc41f48435cc8b510bb4a5b35fb", "label" : "Bringing Thiagi to the classroom: Reducing stereotype-threat by promoting reflection in CRT", "user" : "llis", "description" : "", "date" : "2023-09-23 09:34:20", "changeDate" : "2024-08-25 16:38:28", "count" : 4, "pub-type": "conference", "booktitle": "EARLI 2021 - Online", "year": "2021", "url": "https://maria-wirzberger.de/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Workshop_Thiagi_Classroom_final.pdf", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "abstract": "Culture and ethnicity influence how a person learns and views the world. Experiences at home influence students\u2019 learning fundamentally. However, cultural diversity in classrooms as well as issues such as stereotypes and biases have yet to be addressed in the German education system. School materials i.e., do many times not reflect the cultural diversity in modern classrooms, portraying and promoting stereotypes and biases. These (unconscious) biases are at the center of the problem and have yet to gain the attention and importance they deserve. Since stereotypes and biases are learned constructs, it is of utmost importance to provide tools to unlearn/relearn incorrect constructs and form new synapsis. The existing challenges have thus far failed to be addressed by generic teaching techniques and pedagogy. A new strategy and teaching approach in education is needed to address these issues in an attempt to reduce the current achievement gaps across students of different cultural backgrounds and to incorporate experiences of all students in classroom interactions. In this workshop, we will introduce an interactive teaching and learning approach to promote reflection in culturally responsive teaching (CRT). The instructional design method of Thiagi will serve as an innovative tool to successfully implement CRT, raise awareness of existing stereotypes/ (unconscious) biases, and thus model a way to reduce stereotype-threat. By integrating diversity in form of CRT in the curriculum, we can fundamentally change existing patterns and enable every student to understand and connect to academic content.", "venue" : "EARLI 2021 - Online", "bibtexKey": "berberena2021bringing" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/22f5bd8edba5cb693da1a24751a9a65c6/llis", "tags" : [ "bias","cognition","iris","learning","llis","myown","reflection","stereotype" ], "intraHash" : "2f5bd8edba5cb693da1a24751a9a65c6", "interHash" : "42aecd5871697470ff4ade19584d946d", "label" : "Unveiling unconscious biases and stereotypes in students: The necessity of self-reflection in Higher Education", "user" : "llis", "description" : "", "date" : "2023-09-23 09:34:09", "changeDate" : "2024-08-25 16:36:43", "count" : 4, "pub-type": "conference", "booktitle": "Proceedings of the 43rd Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society", "year": "2021", "url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6k97t362", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "editor": [ "Tecumseh Fitch","Claus Lamm","Helmut Leder","Kristin Teßmar-Raible" ], "editors": [ {"first" : "Tecumseh", "last" : "Fitch"}, {"first" : "Claus", "last" : "Lamm"}, {"first" : "Helmut", "last" : "Leder"}, {"first" : "Kristin", "last" : "Teßmar-Raible"} ], "abstract": "Preparing the next generation for an ever-changing environment is of utmost importance in Higher Education.

Previous research found that reflecting on one\u2019s behavior can boost learning from success and failure. Here, we explore the potential benefits of guiding people to reflect on whether and how they thought about what to do (i.e., systematic metacognitive reflection). We devised a series of Socratic questions that prompt people to reflect on their decision-making and tested their effectiveness in a process-tracing experiment with a 5-step planning task ( $N=265$ ). Each participant went through several cycles of making a series of decisions and then either reflecting on how they made those decisions, answering unrelated questions, or moving on to the next decision right away. We found that systematic metacognitive reflection helps people discover adaptive, far-sighted decision strategies faster. Our results suggest that systematic metacognitive reflection is a promising approach to boosting people\u2019s decision-making competence.", "doi" : "DOI: 10.1017/jdm.2023.16", "bibtexKey": "becker2023systematic" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/29e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c/mariawirzberger", "tags" : [ "AI","instruction","learning","myown","reflection","teaching" ], "intraHash" : "9e4c486ece9d04659e8d9fbcc722ec5c", "interHash" : "4212f20e345f76e406a0504889efee7c", "label" : "Embedding reflective learning opportunities in teaching about intelligent systems", "user" : "mariawirzberger", "description" : "", "date" : "2022-10-20 10:52:15", "changeDate" : "2023-10-31 09:19:43", "count" : 3, "pub-type": "conference", "booktitle": "Reflection on intelligent systems: Towards a cross-disciplinary definition", "year": "2022", "url": "", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "editor": [ "Gabriella Lapesa","Lukas Erhard","Curtis Runstedler","Sierra Kaiser" ], "editors": [ {"first" : "Gabriella", "last" : "Lapesa"}, {"first" : "Lukas", "last" : "Erhard"}, {"first" : "Curtis", "last" : "Runstedler"}, {"first" : "Sierra", "last" : "Kaiser"} ], "bibtexKey": "berberena2022embedding" } , { "type" : "Publication", "id" : "https://puma.ub.uni-stuttgart.de/bibtex/21cb8221179fc2538bce7d72f3dfb7759/mariawirzberger", "tags" : [ "bias","education","higher","learning","myown","reflection","stereotype" ], "intraHash" : "1cb8221179fc2538bce7d72f3dfb7759", "interHash" : "42aecd5871697470ff4ade19584d946d", "label" : "Unveiling unconscious biases and stereotypes in students: The necessity of self-reflection in Higher Education", "user" : "mariawirzberger", "description" : "", "date" : "2021-06-06 17:23:54", "changeDate" : "2023-10-30 08:37:16", "count" : 4, "pub-type": "conference", "year": "2021", "url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6k97t362", "author": [ "Tabea Berberena","Maria Wirzberger" ], "authors": [ {"first" : "Tabea", "last" : "Berberena"}, {"first" : "Maria", "last" : "Wirzberger"} ], "editor": [ "Tecumseh Fitch","Claus Lamm","Helmut Leder","Kristin Teßmar-Raible" ], "editors": [ {"first" : "Tecumseh", "last" : "Fitch"}, {"first" : "Claus", "last" : "Lamm"}, {"first" : "Helmut", "last" : "Leder"}, {"first" : "Kristin", "last" : "Teßmar-Raible"} ], "abstract": "Preparing the next generation for an ever-changing environment is of utmost importance in Higher Education.
