The effects were the same as when it was a human who was excluded, and between low and high anthropomorphic robots. Interpersonal and intergroup processes apply also to robot outgroups!

Implicit anthropomorphism processes make participants attribute negative mental states to the excluded robot; ostracism detection system makes them "feel" the ostracism; moral and group processes lead to a negative evaluation of the human excluders and to perceive the group as less entitative.

We found that experiencing social exclusion was a key process conveying the effects on attitudes and prosocial intentions. Also, the effects were stronger when homelessness was experienced through a 360° video in 3D-VR compared to the same video watched on a 2D screen
