The main aim of this paper is to present the study designed to check whether negative attitudes towards interactions with robots may be influenced by demonstrating videos presenting advanced modern robots. The attitude was measured with the use of the Negative Attitude toward Interactions with Robots questionnaire (NATIR). 66 subjects participated in the study divided into the pretest, a video presentation and the post‐test. Our main findings are the following. There is a significant difference between pre‐test and post‐test NATIR scores—the attitude towards interactions with robots improved after our subjects watched a video. We also observe an effect of participants gender on NATIR results—men had more positive attitude than women.
