Rohan Sobha 3.2 2 Provide support to Patients with Dementia (PwD) who currently are dependent on their caretakers and significant other to go for walks. This is outlined in more detail in the [[Objectives>>https://xwiki.ewi.tudelft.nl/xwiki/wiki/sce2022group02/view/Objectives/]] section. The presumed baseline is that PwD walk under supervision of their loved ones or caretakers. To reach our objective and support our claims, we would like to put forward the following research questions:
Bart Vastenhouw 1.1 3
Rohan Sobha 3.2 4 1. Does walking with the MiRo increase the perceived satisfaction?
5 1. Does walking with the MiRo increase the perceived autonomy?
6 1. To which degree do users express familiarity with the MiRo?
7 1. How do users react to snoezelen with a moving robot?

11 To this effect, we would like to invite users to participate in a usability study. In the study, we will assess the first two research questions by dividing the participants into two groups: one with a //caretaker// and one with a //MiRo//. The former group will enact the activity of walking in the current setting and the latter group will do the equivalent with the robot. Afterwards, both groups are assessed by means of Likert-scales to measure the increase.

Rohan Sobha 3.3 18 The first two questions can be answered using a within-subject design in order to be able to measure the //increase// per subject. The learning effect will be mitigated, because the two juxtaposed settings are vastly different. So, there is no advantage for the participant to be subjected to two conditions serially.
