(2017) Sociality and normativity for robots, Dordrecht, Springer.
Social robotics attempts to build robots able to interact with humans and other robots. Philosophical and scientific research in social cognition can provide social robotics research with models of social cognition to implement those models in mechanic agents. The aim of this paper is twofold: firstly, I present and defend a framework in social cognition known as mindshaping. According to it, human beings are biologically predisposed to learn and teach cultural and rational norms and complex cultural patterns of behavior that enhance social cognition. Secondly, I will highlight how this framework can open new research perspectives in the area of social robotics.
