Abstract
We developed a self-report measurement, Moral Concern for Robots Scale (MCRS), which measures whether people believe that a robot has moral standing, deserves moral care, and merits protection. The results of an online survey ($\pmb{N}= 200$) confirmed the concurrent validity and predictive validity of the scale in the sense that the scale scores are successfully used to predict people's intentions for prosocial behaviors.
