Abstract

 This study clarified the effects of RAA(robot-assisted activity)on senior citizens with dementia. The concentrations of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol(MHPG), 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid(HVA), and secretory immunoglobulin A(s-IgA)in saliva were used as psychophysiological index. As behavioral and dementia measures, HDS-R(Revised version of Hasegawa's Dementia Scale), DBD(Dementia Behavior Disturbance), and N-ADL(N-Activities of Daily Living Scale)were used. Twenty senior citizens who entered a healthcare facility for the elderly participated in this experiment. They engaged in RAA three days a week for four weeks. Each session was 30 minutes with AIBO, a pet robot (SONY ERS-210). Saliva samples of participants were collected before each session. In addition, HDS-R, DBD and N-ADL scores from before and after the four week course were compared. As a result, short-term effects of RAA were suggested, specifically, HVA concentrations increased significantly in one senior citizen with Alzheimer's disease, but long-term effects were not seen. Improvement in behavioral evaluations were seen in 40-50% of the participants on DBD and N-ADL scores. Development of an approach to investigate the long-term effects of RAA is needed.
