Actionability
1/2Score 1: Provides general normative direction and principles on robot design and use in therapy, without establishing binding requirements or specific compliance controls.
We conclude that although in general stakeholders approve of using robots in therapy for children with ASD, it is wise to avoid replacing therapists by robots and to develop and use robots that have what we call supervised autonomy.
