本文报道了一项对老年痴呆症患者进行机器人辅助活动（RAA）的试验。研究对象是一个集体之家的8名老年痴呆症患者（68-89岁）。会议被认为是大约30分钟的宠物型机器人AIBO。通过比较治疗前后N-痴呆量表、简易精神状态检查量表（MMSE）和本研究专用的行为量表的评分来衡量结果。此外，通过观察他们的发言，从文字，长度和实质内容等方面，我们将这一会议与每一次会议进行了比较。通过这些活动，改善了一些心理或行为问题，如与个人组织或员工的沟通。结果显示，机器人辅助活动对改善老年痴呆症患者的活动能力和情绪状态是有益的。此外，这些活动有助于与团体之家的工作人员进行顺畅的沟通，并与居住者建立友好关系。
The paper reports on a trial of robot-assisted activity (RAA) for elderly people with senile dementia. Study subjects were eight elderly residents (68-89 year old) with senile dementia in a group home. The session was considered of approximately thirty minutes with the pet-type robot AIBO. Outcome was measured by comparison of pre- and posts-the session scores of N-dementia scale, MMSE (mini mental state examination) scale, and a behavior scale specially proved for this study. Also, by the observation of their speech, for words, length, and substance and so on, we compared the session with every session. Through these activities, some of psychological or behavioral problems such as communication with the personal organization or staff were improved. The result indicates that robot-assisted activity is useful to improve activities and emotional state of elderly people with dementia. Moreover, the activities are useful to for smoothing communication with staff in a group home and establish friendly relations with occupants.
