N2 - The presence of a robot in our everyday life can generate both positive and negative effects on us. While performing a difficult task, the presence of a robot can generate a negative effect on the performance and it can also increase the stress and anxiety levels. In order to minimize these undesired effects, we propose the use of user’s motivation, based on the Regulatory Focus Theory. We analyze the effects of using Regulatory oriented strategies in a robot speech, when giving a person the instructions of how to perform a Stroop Test. We found evidence that matching the Chronic Regulatory state of the participants with the Regulatory oriented strategy of the robot improves the user’s performance, and a mismatch leads to an increase of cognitive load and stress in the participants.
