This study examines the dynamics of obedience and power in the context of interactions between humans and robots at work. We replicated and extended the previous studies by comparing the responses of participants to a humanoid robot, which acts as an authoritative figure, against those to a human in a similar role. Although the humanoid robot commanded a significant level of obedience (63%), it was notably lower than that of its human counterpart (75%). Moreover, the work under the supervision of the robot was performed more slowly and less effectively. The results provide a good insight into the practical implications of using humanoid robots in official roles, especially for repeated and tedious tasks or challenging work activities.
