The Impact of Social Robot Interaction on Engagement and Narrative Complexity in Primary School Children
Social robots are increasingly being integrated into educational settings as they can enhance engagement and learning, particularly in young learners. This study explored the impact of a social robot (NAO) during a storytelling activity with primary school children, focusing on engagement, narrative skills, and introspective language, compared to the interaction with a standard technological device such as a tablet). It was hypothesized that, in …
Act-on-Dip
Background : Children with diplegic Cerebral Palsy often exhibit upper-limb (UL) motor impairments compounded by deficits in visuospatial, sensory, and executive functions. Despite this, research has primarily focused on lower-limb rehabilitation, leaving the treatment of UL function in diplegic Cerebral Palsy underexplored. Action Observation Therapy (AOT), based on Mirror Neuron System activation, has shown promise in promoting motor recovery, …
Executive Functions and Rapid Automatized Naming
Executive function deficits are documented in many neurodevelopmental disorders and may contribute to clinical complexity or rehabilitation resilience. The present research was primarily aimed at presenting and evaluating the feasibility and effectiveness of a telerehabilitation program used during the pandemic period. MemoRAN (Anastasis), a computerised cognitive training to improve executive control during visual-verbal integration tasks was us…
Dialogic Reading to Empower Executive Functions in Preschoolers
Among the interventions recently developed to enhance Executive Functions (EFs) in preschoolers, Quincey Quokka's Quest (QQQ) is an illustrated book proposing EF activities embedded within a shared reading framework (Howard et al., 2017). In the present study, the Italian version of QQQ (QQQ IT ) was tested in 20 typical developing 4-5 year old children. Standardized tests were used to assess EFs pre- and post- intervention. QQQ IT was conducted …
