Iina turja5/16/2023 Ten statements, modified after the Almere questionnaire, concerned the respondents acceptance of robots which they had used. Via an online user experience questionnaire, this study targeted nursing personnel who have used assistive robots in their work. Many studies have examined robot acceptance from various angles, but reports of actual robot usage and the user experiences of professional personnel are scarce. These results give a baseline for monitoring the service robot acceptance of nursing personnel based on actual robot usage.Ībstract = "The interest to employ service robots in the care context is increasing due to the aging population. There is a lot of under explored ground between the simple-to-use therapy animal robots and functional patient lifting robots, and the potential and acceptance of those robots is yet to be seen. These results show that the initial steps towards employing robots in care work have been taken. Furthermore, it seems there are some concerns of the safety of using them. In general, more knowledge is needed to make good use of the robots. Fewer respondents had used the rehabilitation/recreational robots and telepresence robots, which received lower scores than the others regarding many of the studied user experience aspects. The patient lifting robots were most positively received regarding their usefulness, whereas the interaction with the robotic therapy animals was rated pleasant. The intentions to use and the attitudes towards each type of robot were generally positive. Most of the reported robot usage was with the seal robot Paro, and regular use of any robot was rare. Four different types of robots (robotic therapy animal rehabilitation/recreational robot telepresence robot and patient lifting robot) were each covered separately. Ten statements, modified after the Almere questionnaire, concerned the respondents’ acceptance of robots which they had used. The interest to employ service robots in the care context is increasing due to the aging population.
