摘要
This study examined the first-time acceptance of (SAR) by preschool and primary school teachers. A modified Unified Theory of Acceptance and the Use of Technology model was applied using the questionnaires filled out by 18 teachers following interactions with a robot. The participants demonstrated positive reactions and acceptance accompanied by a variety of answers. The lack of consolidated views in the tested population of teachers and the need for an adaptation of the model are suggested. The future intensive research of teacher-acceptance of SAR will avoid the gap between technology and the end-user. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
