Abstract

ABSTRACTSocially assistive robots have successfully been trialed in residential care facilities (RCFs) for older adults. These robots may have potential for younger adults (i.e. under 65 years old) who also live in RCFs. However, it is important to investigate staff acceptability and ease-of-use of these robots. This pilot study used the Technology Acceptance Model to investigate how staff working in a specialized RCF for younger adults accept Betty, a socially assistive robot who was introduced in the facility for 12 weeks. Twenty-four staff completed pre-questionnaires, reporting that they thought Betty would have the ability to engage and entertain the residents they cared for. While there were only eight staff who completed the post-questionnaires, there were significant improvements compared to the pre-questionnaire results in areas such as residents enjoying the contact and activities. Impacting on ease-of use were technical difficulties. Although this study had limitations and could be improved by a better response rate and investigating the residents' acceptability of Betty, this study is one of the first to report that this novel technology may have much potential for engaging adults in RCFs.

摘要

摘要

社交辅助机器人已成功在老年人居住的养老院中进行试用。这些机器人对于同样居住在养老院中的较年轻的成年人(即 65 岁以下)可能具有潜力。然而,调查工作人员对这些机器人的接受程度和易用性非常重要。这项试点研究使用技术接受模型来调查在一家专门为较年轻成年人设立的养老院工作的工作人员如何接受贝蒂(Betty),贝蒂是一种社交辅助机器人,在该设施中使用了 12 周。24 名工作人员完成了预调查问卷,报告称他们认为贝蒂将有能力吸引和娱乐他们所照顾的居民。尽管只有 8 名工作人员完成了后调查问卷,但与预调查问卷结果相比,在居民享受联系和活动等方面有了显著的改善。影响易用性的是技术困难。尽管这项研究存在局限性,可以通过提高更好的回复率和调查居民对贝蒂的接受程度来进行改进,但这项研究是首批报告这项新技术可能在吸引养老院成年人方面具有很大潜力的研究之一。
