Confirm the prototype: For the pilot study, the scenario to be tested, and the control situation were setup at the Insyght Lab at TU Delft, and preliminary testing was done by the team members. This includes the robots with and without interactive storytelling which were confirmed and working. The voice input and touch input to the robot were verified.

28		-We used a modified version of the Godspeed questionnaire for our evaluation [1]. It measures the anthropomorphism, animacy, likeability, intelligence, and safety of the robot. This uses a Likert scale where the user must rate questions as a number between 1 and 5; both numbers being at opposite poles. To measure whether patients with dementia completed the activity they were meant to do, and to evaluate whether storytelling made a difference to their meal, we added the following questions:

30		-1. Please rate the question according to the following attributes. - Mood of the patient after the activity. (Scale of 1 to 5)

43	43	We present a low fidelity prototype of the robot, which means a simple demonstration of the initial stages of the robot, meant for formative feedback. We wizard-of-oz the approach, and for now just present one story (in interactive and non interactive modes) for purposes of the experiment. The final robot is expected to have various templates of stories.

45	45	For prototyping, we will use incremental prototyping, which means adding features one by one and testing for each. We start with the most basic feature, complete a cycle of testing, and then add on new features to create new versions of the prototype. For the robot, we will first build the non interactive storytelling robot, then add music to it, and then add gestures. With each stage, we test the working of it, and if working as expected, we will move on to adding the next feature.

50		-We decided to use the **paired sampled t test** since the experiment was a **within subject** experiment. The **one tailed t test** was used since we want to find if one condition is better than the other. Though the one tailed t test is more powerful, it could be debatable whether it is better than the two tailed t test in this scenario, since with the one tailed t test, we assume already that the experimental scenario will perform better than the control scenario.
