项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The aging population with its concomitant medical conditions, physical and cognitive impairments, at a time of strained health care resources, establishes the urgent need to design and implement technologies that enhance or maintain physical and cognitive function and improve quality of life among older adults. Robotic technologies in the form of socially assistive robots (SAR), with capabilities for autonomously detecting and meaningfully responding to older adults' engagement and behavior, have the potential for addressing physical, cognitive, and/or social conditions. The field of SAR is still in early development. We propose to introduce SAR for not only one person - one robot interaction, but also to utilize the robot to foster interactions between two people. The specific aims of this two-year pilot study are: 1) design and validation of an autonomous robotic architecture for older adults with and without cognitive impairment or apathy and 2) assess the feasibility, acceptability and tolerance of the robot-mediated intervention. To accomplish Aim 1, we will refine our current robotic architecture ARIA (Adaptive Robot-Mediated Intervention Architecture) to create several new engaging cognitive, physical and social tasks suitable for older adults and extend the ARIA's capability to include more than one person in the robot-mediated activities to foster human-to-human interaction. We will conduct laboratory experiments involving 30 older adults (10 without cognitive impairment, 10 with mild cognitive impairment, and 10 with mild to moderate dementia) in which we will test the individual capabilities as well as integrated functioning of the robotic system. In Aim 2, we will conduct two pilot feasibility studies at an independent living, assisted living and dementia care senior center. In Pilot Study 1, we will enroll 12 adults, 4 with no cognitive impairment, 4 with mild cognitive impairment, and 4 with mild to moderate dementia, to participate three times weekly for 4 weeks in a series of physical, cognitive and social activities. Pilot Study 2 will include 6 pairs of older adults (2 with no cognitive impairment, 2 pairs with MCI, and 2 pairs with dementia) to attend three sessions a week for 4 weeks. This will allow us to expand the robotic capabilities to monitor more than one person and to encourage social engagement between the older adults. All study procedures will remain the same as in Pilot Study 1. Aims 1 and 2 experiments will be videotaped. Older adults' reactions to the robotic interactions will be gathered by survey, and observation using observer-rated tools. In addition to informing future clinical trials of SAR effectiveness, the information from the proposed study will contribute to the long-term goals supporting the development of robotic strategies to enhance physical function, cognition and socialization of older adults in the community setting.

项目总结/摘要人口老龄化及其伴随的医疗条件，身体和认知障碍，在一个时代，紧张的卫生保健资源，建立迫切需要设计和实施技术，或维持身体和认知功能，改善老年人的生活质量。机器人技术以社会辅助机器人（SAR）的形式，具有自主检测和有意义的能力响应老年人的参与和行为，有可能解决身体，认知，和/或社会条件。SAR领域仍处于早期发展阶段。我们建议引入SAR，一个人与一个机器人的互动，而且还利用机器人来促进两个人之间的互动。的这项为期两年的试点研究的具体目标是：1）设计和验证一个自主机器人架构，有和没有认知障碍或冷漠的老年人，2）评估可行性，可接受性和对机器人干预的容忍度。为了实现目标1，我们将改进当前的机器人架构 ARIA（自适应机器人介导干预架构）将创建几个新的引人入胜的认知、身体干预架构和社会任务适合老年人，并扩大ARIA的能力，包括一个以上的人在以机器人为媒介的活动，以促进人与人之间的互动。我们将进行实验室实验涉及30名老年人（10名无认知障碍，10名轻度认知障碍，10名轻度到中度痴呆），我们将测试个体能力以及机器人系统在目标2中，我们将在独立生活、辅助生活和老年痴呆症护理中心在初步研究1中，我们将招募12名成人，4名无认知障碍，4名轻度认知障碍，认知障碍，4例轻度至中度痴呆，每周参加3次，持续4周，一系列的身体、认知和社交活动。初步研究2将包括6对老年人（2对没有认知障碍，2对患有MCI，2对患有痴呆症）每周参加三次会议，持续4周。这将使我们能够扩大机器人的能力，以监测多个人，并鼓励社会老年人之间的交往。所有研究程序将与初步研究1相同。目标1 并对2个实验进行录像。老年人对机器人互动的反应将由调查和观察使用的工具。除了为未来的SAR临床试验提供信息外，有效性，拟议研究的信息将有助于实现支持开发机器人策略，以增强老年人的身体功能、认知和社会化，社区设置。
