Nao is the new shoulder to lean on for children.
, computer scientists, and psychiatrists conducted the study with 28 children aged eight to thirteen, using a child-sized humanoid robot to administer a series of standard psychological questionnaires to each participant.
“Children are quite tactile, and they’re drawn to technology. If they’re using a screen-based tool, they’re withdrawn from the physical world. But robots are perfect because they’re in the physical world – they’re more interactive, so the children are more engaged.”For the study, Nao — which stands about 60 centimeters tall — met with 28 children for 45-minute sessions. Members of the research team and a parent or guardian watched from a nearby room.
Nao, which has the voice of a child, asked children how they felt last week and administered a questionnaire on feelings and mood and also a questionnaire used in diagnosing anxiety, panic disorder, and low mood.
