robopsychology

Robopsychology is the fictional study of the personalities of artificially intelligent machines. The term and the concept were popularised by Isaac Asimov in the short stories collected in I, Robot, which featured robopsychologist Dr. Susan Calvin, and whose plots largely revolved round the protagonists solving problems connected with intelligent robot behaviour. The stories also introduced Asimov's famous Three Laws of Robotics. As described by Asimov, robopsychology appears to be a mixture of detailed mathematical analysis and old-fashioned psychology, applied to robots. Compare with: psychohistory.
