Perceived safety during human-robot interaction with an autonomous mobile robot.
Article in Applied ergonomics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are being rapidly implemented in the manufacturing and warehousing industries. Research could help enhance our understanding of human workers' safety perceptions and behaviors when interacting with AMRs, enabling the improvement of collision-avoidance strategies and criteria for safer interactions. In this study, we examined the effects of AMR shelf height, movement speed, and trajectory path on perceived safety, mental workload, robot trust, proxemic behaviors, and task performance during a simulated loading/unloading task. Overall, AMR speed and trajectory path had the largest impact on the task outcomes, while there was minimal variation across height conditions. Findings from this research can be considered for the design of AMRs and facilities that utilize them.
