The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of a brief robot-mediated intervention based on Lego(®) therapy on improving collaborative behaviors (i.e., interaction initiations, responses, and play together) between children with ASD and their siblings during play sessions, in a therapeutic setting. A concurrent multiple baseline design across three child-sibling pairs was in effect. The robot-intervention resulted in no statistically significant changes in collaborative behaviors of the children with ASD. Despite limited effectiveness of the intervention, this study provides several practical implications and directions for future research.
本研究旨在探讨基于乐高治疗的简短机器人介导干预对改善 ASD 儿童与兄弟姐妹在治疗环境中游戏时的协作行为（即互动发起、回应和一起玩耍）的有效性。采用三个儿童-兄弟姐妹对的同时多项基线设计。机器人干预并没有在 ASD 儿童的协作行为上产生统计学上显著的变化。尽管干预效果有限，但本研究为未来的研究提供了一些实际的启示和方向。
