چکیده
This abstract describes the development of algorithms for personalized anxiety reduction feedback for use by a robot buddy interacting with a child about to receive intravenous therapy (an IV insertion). This three-phase study is currently being conducted; it consists of two data collections to determine domain-specific approaches, followed by the full study with personalized anxiety-reducing feedback. Participants receiving personalized feedback will be compared to participants with a non-personalized robot (to control for novelty) and a no robot condition (baseline control).
