dc.description.abstract | Background: It can be difficult to motivate children to participate in physical exercises, especially when they have oncological disorders. Purpose: examine the effect of a humanoid robot and music on motivation to participate in physical activity in typically developing children (TDC) and children with oncological disorders (COD). Methods: Two cohort studies were conducted; in an elementary school in Belgium (N=75TDC, 4-13years) and pediatric cancer ward of Ghent University Hospital (N=13COD, 3-15years). Participants completed four gross motor exercise conditions; with a human or humanoid robot instructor and with or without music. Motivation was assessed using the Smileyometer (amount of fun), Again score (amount of chosen repetitions) and Fun Sorter (which condition was most fun). Results: TDC indicated higher Smileyometer-scores in the two conditions with music. The Again score revealed no preference in either group. In TDC and COD, the results of the Fun Sorter indicated that conditions with music or the robot were more fun than without music or with the human instructor. The combination of the robot and music was most preferred. Conclusions: Music or a humanoid robot seemed to increase children's initial motivation to participate in physical activity, also in hospitalized COD. Further research should evaluate the long-term effects. | - |
