First of all, patients are likely to become more engaged and act positively in the interaction with a human-like robot compared to robots without physical embodiment [1,2,3]. Besides, the quality of life of patients has also been proved to improve with the application of humanoid robots helping with daily issues. Furthermore, physical robots can implement non-verbal cues such as movement detection, hand gesture recognition, etc. which can also help give hints on the actions that patients need to take [4]. 3 +Humanoid robots have various advantages when used for interacting with patients suffering from major neurocognitive disorders.

Being small enough to fit into a home environment, easy to use, and child-like shaped, NAO satisfies all these requirements. However, research has also shown that cognitive decline is not prevented by frequent interactions with NAO for patients suffering from advanced dementia [3], on which our team will work to seek improvement. 6 6
