Prior research in human robot interaction (HRI) has largely focused on whether users adopt an intentional stance towards robots. We propose a methodology to investigate people's explanations of robotic behavior that emphasizes finer-grained distinctions between explanations. The study also explores how users explanations change according to the modelling of a form of social competence in the robot by means of a computational cognitive architecture. Findings offer initial insight into how different explanatory strategies resonate with users.

Abstract
Prior research in human robot interaction (HRI) has largely focused on whether users adopt an intentional stance towards robots. We propose a methodology to investigate people's explanations of robotic behavior that emphasizes finer-grained distinctions between explanations. The study also explores how users explanations change according to the modelling of a form of social competence in the robot by means of a computational cognitive architecture. Findings offer initial insight into how different explanatory strategies resonate with users.
