Inner Speech is an essential but also elusive human psychological processwhich refers to an everyday covert internal conversation with oneself. We arguethat programming a robot with an overt self-talk system, which simulates humaninner speech, might enhance human trust by improving robot transparency andanthropomorphism. For this reasons, this work aims to investigate if robot'sinner speech, here intended as overt self-talk, affects human trust andanthropomorphism when human and robot cooperate. A group of participants wasengaged in collaboration with the robot. During cooperation, the robot talks toitself. To evaluate if the robot's inner speech influences human trust, twoquestionnaires were administered to each participant before (pre-test) andafter (post-test) the cooperative session with the robot. Preliminary resultsevidenced differences between the answers of participants in the pre-test andpost-test assessment, suggesting that robot's inner speech influences humantrust. Indeed, participant's levels of trust and perception of robotanthropomorphic features increase after the experimental interaction with therobot.
