Carta informando sobre asuntos económicos, misiones jesuitas en California y acontecimientos globales, 1744 mayo 27
No full textCarta al Procurador General Jesuita Joseph Ferrer expresando preocupación por la falta de cartas provenientes de México debido a las guerras en Europa y el temor de que los ingleses hayan interceptado la correspondencia. Menciona dificultades para obtener tierras para el colegio en Guatemala. También informa sobre la resolución de una cédula real para el pago de dinero a la provincia como herederos de Don Pedro Gonzales de Valdeosera. Reporta un aumento de misioneros y su guarda en California y los Pimas Altos, y que no tiene actualizaciones sobre el estado de los diezmos para la provincia. Finalmente, comenta sobre la inminente guerra entre Francia e Inglaterra. Como posdata, solicita una respuesta y una receta para tratar a los "locos", y menciona que la fundación de Guanajuato avanza favorablemente. —— Letter to Jesuit Attorney General Joseph Ferrer expressing concern over the lack of letters from Mexico due to the wars in Europe and fears that the English might have intercepted correspondence. He mentions difficulties in obtaining land for the college in Guatemala. He also informs about the resolution of a royal decree for the payment of money to the province as heirs of Don Pedro Gonzales de Valdeosera. He reports on an increase in missionaries and soldiers in California and the Pimas Altos and having no updates on the status of tithes for the province. Finally, he comments on the impending war between France and England. As a postscript, he requests a response and a recipe to treat the insane, and notes that the foundation of Guanajuato is progressing favorably. 2 f. (4 p.
Community Embedded Robotics: Non-Robot Pre-Deployment Interviews Analysis Dataset, Phase I
No full textIntroduction
This dataset consists of analyzed results of short interview responses about imagined encounters with robots in high-traffic pedestrian spaces within a university campus. The interviews focused on non-robot deployment scenarios, exploring human expectations and reactions to robots. Participants were asked to describe how they might interact with robots in various public environments, resulting in discursive accounts that explore a wide range of potential human-robot interactions in public spaces. The research design prioritized discursive accounts and employed analysis based on Grounded Theory to uncover insights into human attitudes toward robots. To ensure the utmost privacy for the interviewees, the dataset has been carefully curated to include only analysis-ready content, with all personally identifiable information removed. The interview protocol is also included.
By combining perspectives from Communication Studies, Human-Robot Interaction, and Information Studies disciplines the interview protocol and data analysis results contribute actionable insights to the field of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), particularly in terms of understanding user personas, agency dynamics, and design considerations for future robotic systems in public spaces.

Poster describing research motivation and methodology
Participants
The study included responses from 41 participants who were interviewed in a public pedestrian area at the University of Texas at Austin. These participants represented a diverse cross-section of the university community. All participants provided informed consent prior to the interviews, and to protect their privacy, the data was anonymized, with no identifying personal details included in the analysis.
Interview Protocol and Questionnaire
The interviews lasted between 8 and 16 minutes and were conducted in a densely populated pedestrian area on campus. This setting was chosen to simulate real-world environments where people might encounter robots in the future. The interview protocol involved asking participants to imagine a robot encounter and explore their thoughts on robot functionality, behavior, and interaction. Researchers encouraged participants to elaborate on their ideas, capturing rich insights about human-robot interaction in public spaces.
The interviews were semi-structured, focusing on participants' imagined encounters with robots in their current environments. Participants were asked to reflect on their expectations, concerns, and desires regarding robots. Follow-up questions explored the specific roles they envisioned for robots, their fears, and the features they hoped to see in robotic systems. This approach was designed to capture spontaneous reactions while encouraging deeper reflection on human-robot interaction.
Data Analysis Method
Researchers adopted a constructivist Grounded Theory approach for data analysis. More specifically, the data was analyzed using socio-technical grounded theory, allowing the researchers to build themes from participants’ discursive accounts. Based on these accounts, researchers identified a framework of human-robot agency. Primarily, the framework focuses on a set of agency dynamics that reflect the imagined scenarios participants described in interviews. Through the analysis, researchers also developed possible user personas which reflect described actors in participant scenarios, and a checklist for designers to use when considering ethical dilemmas prior to deployment.
Access Restrictions
The interview transcripts are not published for purposes of protecting the identity of the participants.
