Summary
This study tested whether spending time with a robot named Kebbi could improve thinking, heart health, and mood in older adults with mild dementia. 136 people in long-term care took part, with some using the robot for 30 minutes three times a week for 12 weeks, while others did their usual activities. The results showed that the robot group had better memory, attention, and emotional well-being compared to the control group.
