  - <jats:p>In this paper, we investigate the effect of distractions and hesitations
    as a scaffolding strategy. Recent research points to the potential beneficial
    effects of a speaker’s hesitations on the listeners’ comprehension of utterances,
    although results from studies on this issue indicate that humans do not make strategic
    use of them. The role of hesitations and their communicative function in human-human
    interaction is a much-discussed topic in current research. To better understand
    the underlying cognitive processes, we developed a human–robot interaction (HRI)
    setup that allows the measurement of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals of
    a human participant while interacting with a robot. We thereby address the research
    question of whether we find effects on single-trial EEG based on the distraction
    and the corresponding robot’s hesitation scaffolding strategy. To carry out the
    experiments, we leverage our LabLinking method, which enables interdisciplinary
    joint research between remote labs. This study could not have been conducted without
    LabLinking, as the two involved labs needed to combine their individual expertise
    and equipment to achieve the goal together. The results of our study indicate
    that the EEG correlates in the distracted condition are different from the baseline
    condition without distractions. Furthermore, we could differentiate the EEG correlates
    of distraction with and without a hesitation scaffolding strategy. This proof-of-concept
    study shows that LabLinking makes it possible to conduct collaborative HRI studies
    in remote laboratories and lays the first foundation for more in-depth research
    into robotic scaffolding strategies.</jats:p>@eng
