Tesis por compendio de publicaciones. ; [EN] Background: Positioned within the realm of digital health technologies, social robots emerge as a prospective avenue for enhancing the quality of life and social health of elderly adults and people with dementia (PwD). These robots offer companionship and social engagement, cognitive stimulation, learning and entertainment, monitoring and safety, assistance with daily activities and communication aid. Based on the existing literature, they are proven to improve social interactions, activity participation and engagement, and emotions in these target groups. It is crucial to adopt proper evaluation methodologies to study social robots and their effectiveness and implementation in this target group. Moreover, careful consideration of design and interaction methods, as well as ongoing customization, is essential to address these challenges and ensure that social robots effectively support and engage individuals with dementia in a meaningful and respectful manner. Lately, a robotic platform called MINI has been designed and developed in the robotic lab of the University of Carlos III in Madrid with an aim to support seniors and provide cognitive and social stimulation for older adults, especially for those with cognitive impairment. Aim: In this project, firstly, we aimed to review the methodologies used thus far in studies evaluating the feasibility, usability, efficacy, and effectiveness of social robots in clinical and social settings for elderly people, including persons with dementia. Secondly, we assessed the viewpoints of stakeholders and external contextual factors that could either facilitate or impede the introduction of the MINI social robot in Meeting Centres (MC) located in communities, aimed at providing support for PwD and their caregivers in the Netherlands and Spain. Thirdly, we investigated the acceptability and attitudes of the PwD and Mild Cognitive Impairments (MCI) towards the MINI robot. Lastly, we evaluated the usability and user experience of the ... |
