Abstract

Socially assistive robots provide assistance to human users through interactions that are inherently social. This category includes robot tutors that provide students with personalized one-on-one lessons (Ramachandran, Litoiu, & Scassellati, 2016), robot therapy assistants that help mediate social interactions between children with ASD and adult therapists (Scassellati, Admoni, & Matarić, 2012), and robot coaches that motivate children to make healthy eating choices (Short et al., 2014).
