It introduces the concept of \"meta-modalities\" which encapsulate\nadditional forms of feedback beyond the traditional preference and scalar\nfeedback mechanisms. Unlike prior research that focused on individual\nmeta-modalities, this work evaluates their combined effect on learning\noutcomes. Through a study with human participants, we explore user preferences\nfor these modalities and their impact on robot learning performance. Our\nfindings reveal that while individual modalities are perceived differently,\ntheir combination significantly improves learning behavior and usability. This\nresearch not only provides valuable insights into the optimization of\nhuman-robot interactive task learning but also opens new avenues for enhancing\nthe interactive freedom and scaffolding capabilities provided to users in such\nsettings.","lang":"eng"}],"_id":"54698","citation":{"short":"H.
