A Paro robot reduces the stressful effects of environmental noise
The present study 1 investigates the effects of interacting with a Paro robot on physiological stress responses (eg. skin conductance response). Participants were asked to stroke a Paro robot, a bolster, or to rest, before listening to a stressful sound. The results indicate that interacting with a...

| Summary: | The present study 1 investigates the effects of interacting with a Paro robot on physiological stress responses (eg. skin conductance response). Participants were asked to stroke a Paro robot, a bolster, or to rest, before listening to a stressful sound. The results indicate that interacting with a Paro robot helps to reduce responses to noise-induced stress. |
