1 -In this section we are going to discuss some concepts used in Socio-Cognitive Engineering that we incorporated into the design process. These principles and methods can be used to create a more effective and engaging interaction of the Dogg0 and PwD. The Theory of Mind, Shared Mental Model, and Ontology are all concepts that can be applied in the design process of Miro-e, and are discussed below
1 +The course Socio-Cognitive Engineering tries to combine engineering, cognitive psychology, and social sciences to design and develop technological systems that interact with humans in a socially intelligent way. In this project the methodology proposed by the lectures is used and the structure of the preset chapters of this document follow this methodology. The idea is that "from the foundation, a design //specification// is derived that defines “what” the system shall do (function) in a set of use cases (“when”) to bring about a desired effect (i.e., the claim, “why”)." (Neerincx et al., 2019). The claims will then be evaluated in an iterative process where design specifications can be validated.

6 -This is the ability to understand other people's mental states, such as their beliefs, intentions, and desires. In the context of Miro-e, the robot needs to have a theory of mind to effectively interact with people with dementia. For example, the robot needs to be able to recognize when someone is in distress, happy, or sad, and respond appropriately. To achieve this, Miro-e can be designed with sensors that detect facial expressions, vocal cues, and other physical cues that indicate a person's emotional state. On the other hand, the robot also has to be in a way

10 -This is the study of the nature of existence and the relationships between different entities. In the context of Miro-e, ontology can be used to design the robot's interaction with the environment and other entities, such as people, furniture, and objects. This can help the robot provide more effective and personalized support to the person with dementia.
