17		-To this effect, we would like to invite users to participate in a usability study. In the study, we will assess our research question by performing within-subject experiments. The participants will walk twice randomly ordered: once with a //caretaker// and once with //WAF//. The former will enact the activity of walking in the current setting and the latter will do the equivalent with the robot. Afterward, participants are assessed by means of Likert-scales to measure the changes. The difference in scores between the caretaker and the WAF setting will then be subjected to a Wilcoxon [[(Conover, 1998, p. 250)>>https://www-wiley-com.tudelft.idm.oclc.org/en-nl/Practical+Nonparametric+Statistics%2C+3rd+Edition-p-9780471160687]] test to determine whether the results are statistically significant. If the significance has been demonstrated, then we can reject the null hypothesis: walking with the WAF will not provide an increased feeling of autonomy compared to walking with a caretaker.

22	22	For our study, we would have liked to invite people with dementia to participate. However, user testing with a vulnerable group such as this one is difficult seeing the current circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic.
23		-For this reason, we decided to design an experiment to be conducted on our fellow students. Students will be briefed on dementia. Then they take on the role of one of the personas and roleplay a person with dementia. Through this roleplay, we aim to simulate a study with people with dementia as accurately as possible in the given situation. We will give them one page of the [[persona handout document>>https://xwiki.ewi.tudelft.nl/xwiki/wiki/sce2022group02/download/Test/WebHome/personas-handouts.pdf?rev=1.1]] to aid them in their roleplay and study character traits that might influence acceptance of WAF.

52		-The procedure is that the person with dementia walks with WAF. The PwD is given WAF and the accompanying proximity bracelet. WAF has a pre-programmed route to walk and the PwD is asked to walk with the dog. While they are walking the dog, they are observed by a separate observer, carefully noting down any remarkable events. The emotional state of the PwD is actively monitored by looking at facial expressions. Furthermore, the researchers will actively check how easily the PwD interacts with WAF to check the familiarity. When the PwD is done walking, some small questions will be asked to check the satisfaction, autonomy, and familiarity.

54	54	Functions like when an elderly person falls or when they walk in the wrong direction will not forcibly be tested with PwD as this might create a dangerous situation. These functions will be tested in advance with the use of "Dogfeeding". Other people from the development team will test these functions.
