Research Abstract |
In nursing homes, various recreations are carried out in order to prevent the progression of a dementia. But effective recreations have not been designed, because the relationship between the execution and the effect of recreation has not been proved quantitatively. In this research, we proposed how to design the content of recreation according to the inferior capability of each elderly person. In order to propose it, we develop the relationship model between an action factor during a recreation and a capability of elderly person by papers review. This model means what types of action the elderly person need for the improvement of the inferior capability. And we develop correlation model between capabilities (body action, emotion control, conversation, etc). We designed the content of recreation with animal-robot by using these 2 models. As a result of case study in nursing home, we confirmed the effect of the designed recreation, because the target capability of designed recreation is improved according to increase the occurrence rate of the target action factor. Moreover, this result means that the validity of developed 2 models has been proved partly. The achievement of this paper is to develop the framework for the content design of recreation to meet capabilities of each elderly person.
