25 25  == 2.2 Experimental design ==
26 26  
27 -The Pepper robot will be turned on and in a "normal" situation would walk around to monitor the state and activity of the PwD in the care facility. However, because of the lack of time and since we are now only working with students Pepper will search for a face and will then start interacting with the student. The interaction will take place in a TUDelft facility. The experiment will be hold in a room with the robot. Unfortunately, the space of the room is small compared to a an actual park. The robot needs some space to move, hence we will make sure to move everything moved out of the way and that other students(who are not experiment at the moment) wait in the room next. The room also has a different surface than an actual park. However, our experiment focused more on the motivation to go outside then the walk itself. Due to the fact that we want to compare emotion-based and goal-based motivations, ,multiple experiments will be taken. One in which we only test emotion-based motivation and another in which we only test goal-based motivation. Both are measured by a questionnaire, whether there the students indeed agree to go on a walk and how long it takes until the robot convinces a student to go on walk. We plan to do the experiment on a fellow team, which can exist of 4 or 5 people. We want to divide them, half will do the experiment regarding emotion-based and the other half the goal-based one.
27 +**Methodological set-up:**
28 28  
29 -== 2.3 Tasks ==
29 +Pepper will be turned on and will start a conversation with the participant. It will ask the participant to go on a walk and based on the answer Pepper will go on the walk immediately or will try to motivate the PwD to go on a walk with him. During the walk Pepper will ask the participant questions to keep the participant engaged and keep continuing on the walk. So for the experiment a Pepper robot, the Choregraphe software and also freedom of movement is needed. The full step-by-step schedule of the experiment is given in the attachments for both the [[goal based motivation>>attach:goal-based motivation.pdf]] and the [[emotion based motivation>>attach:emotion-based motivation.pdf]].

31 -The student is expected to communicate with the robot by doing the following:
31 +**Conditions**:
32 32  
33 -~1. The student looks the robot in the eye.
33 +The interaction will take place in a TU Delft facility. The experiment will be hold in the Insyght lab. Unfortunately, the space of the room is small compared to a an actual garden. The robot needs some space to move, hence we will make sure to move everything moved out of the way and that other students (who are not experiment at the moment) wait in the room next. Also the walk will not be as long as it would be in the actual garden.
34 34  
35 -2. The student communicates with the robot through a small conversation in the beginning.
35 +The room also has a different surface than an actual park. However, our experiment focused more on the motivation to go outside then the walk itself. The difference in surrounding, a room instead of a garden, might have a little effect on the experience of the participant. However, the motivation will probably not be affected by the surroundings as much.
36 36  
37 -3. When the student agrees to go on a walk, he/she is expected to walk 1 or 2 meters with it (small distance due to the room size).
37 +**Subject design:**
38 38  
39 -4. The student will make a small talk with the robot as well.
39 +For the experiment it was chosen to do in-between subject design as the learning affect in the within-subject design might negatively impact the results. When the same participants have to perform the same routine twice, they might get bored and frustrated due to some repetitions in questioning in the different motivation methods. In the in-between subject design multiple experiments will be taken with different participants. The total group of participants will thus be divided in half regarding either the emotion-based or the goal-based motivation. Both are measured by a questionnaire, which will be discussed in more detail later on in the evaluation part.
40 40  
41 -5. When the walk finishes (after the walk), the student communicates with the robot again.
41 +== 2.3 Tasks ==
42 42  
43 -6. Finally, the student fills in the questionnaire provided by us
43 +The participant is expected to perform the experiment according to the following plan:
44 44  
45 +* Step 1: The participant needs to stand close enough to the robot to have an interaction/conversation with Pepper
46 +* Step 2: The participant needs to look the robot in the eye
47 +* Step 3: The participant needs to actively answer the questions provided by Pepper during the experiment
48 +* Step 4: When the participant has been motivated for a walk he/she needs to walk for 1 to 2 meters with the robot
49 +* Step 5: During the walk the participant is expected to contribute in some small talk with Pepper
50 +* Step 6: When the walk is finished the participant needs to communicate with Pepper after which Pepper will say goodbye and the actual experiment is over
51 +* Step 7: After the experiment the participant needs to fill in the questionnaire provided by group 4

46 46  == 2.4 Measures ==
47 47  
48 48  If our situation, we would like to measure whether the provided motivation indeed has effect on the person. We would like to compare which one has more effect as well. That could be measured by seeing whether they indeed go on the walk or not. We would also like to measure how long it takes to convince them to go on a walk when they do not want. We would also like to measure their emotions during and after the walk. Did they enjoy it? Were they bored? Did they feel lonely? That could be measured with the feedback asked after the walk.
