A case for low-dose robotics in autism therapy
HRI '11: Proceedings of the 6th international conference on Human-robot interaction

Robots appear to be engaging to many children with autism, and evidence suggests that engagement can facilitate social interaction not only between child and robot but also between child and another human. To date, no objective evidence has established ...
Individual Differences of Children with Autism in Robot-assisted Autism Therapy
HRI '22: Proceedings of the 2022 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction

Research has recognized the importance of individual differences of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that require interventions to meet their heterogeneous needs. This relatively large-scale study investigates a robot-assisted autism therapy (...
Robotic assistants in therapy and education of children with autism: can a small humanoid robot help encourage social interaction skills?

This article presents a longitudinal study with four children with autism, who were exposed to a humanoid robot over a period of several months. The longitudinal approach allowed the children time to explore the space of robot–human, as well as human–...
