The author identifies desirable robotic behavioral cues and shows that service robots meet great acceptance among customers. After service failures, customers are even more likely to forgive service robots than human employees. Further, he shows how crucial it is to manage customer expectations that depend on cultural dimensions and internal reference categories. About the Author Moritz Merkle completed his doctoral studies at the Technical University of Darmstadt supervised by Prof. Dr. Dr. Ruth Stock-Homburg. Today he is postdoctoral researcher and habilitation candidate in the field of service marketing. 001437863 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed July 6, 2021). 001437863 650_0 $$aAndroids. 001437863 650_0 $$aRobotics$$xHuman factors. 001437863 650_0 $$aHuman-robot interaction. 001437863 650_0 $$aCustomer services. 001437863 650_6 $$aAndroïdes. 001437863 650_6 $$aRobotique$$xFacteurs humains. 001437863 650_6 $$aInteraction homme-robot. 001437863 650_6 $$aService à la clientèle. 001437863 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001437863 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMerkle, Moritz.$$tHumanoid service robots.$$dWiesbaden : Springer Gabler, [2021]$$z3658344393$$z9783658344399$$w(OCoLC)1250514151 001437863 830_0 $$aGabler research.$$pNeue Perspektiven der marktorientierten Unternehmensführung.$$x2626-1499 001437863 852__ $$bebk 001437863 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-658-34440-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001437863 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1437863$$pGLOBAL_SET 001437863 980__ $$aBIB 001437863 980__ $$aEBOOK 001437863 982__ $$aEbook 001437863 983__ $$aOnline 001437863 994__ $$a92$$bISE
