"Hey robot, where is my drink?" : Project agebots: multidisciplinary perspectives on service robotics in the field of elderly care
Get PDFService robotics offers great potential for retirement and nursing homes. In the present project Agebots (Implementation of service robotics in the field of elderly care), founded by the Swiss Innovation Agency (Innosuisse), a multidisciplinary team is investigating and testing the implementation of service robotics in elderly care. The pursued dimensions are human, technology, business, and law. The project is carried out in cooperation with two implementation partners: a retirement and nursing home and a robot manufacturer, both based in Switzerland. The project is still ongoing and will be completed by 2022. So far, the use of robots in elderly care has proven to be challenging regarding all different dimensions. These challenges have yet to be overcome to ensure a safe implementation that adds value for both caregivers and the elderly and efficiently supports the operations at the retirement and nursing home. The human centered and iterative approach of the present project allows an early identification of potential challenges and the end-users’ needs. This way, the challenges can be addressed proactively, prior to the implementation in the retirement and nursing home

Banken auf dem Holzweg? : Eine empirische Untersuchung der Bewertung von Kreditkarten aus Holz
Get PDFUm ihren Fokus auf Nachhaltigkeit zu unterstreichen bieten vereinzelte Banken in Deutschland und der Schweiz ihrer Kundschaft seit kurzem Kreditkarten aus Holz. Wie nehmen die Kunden diese Karten in Bezug auf die Nachhaltigkeit der Karte und der Bank wahr? Auf Basis der Hinweis-Konsistenz-Theorie wird die Fragestellung mittels einer Befragung von 85 Studierenden untersucht. Mittels Faktorenanalyse werden die Aussagen zur Nachhaltigkeitseinstellung und zur Erwartung an die Bank verdichtet. Die Regressions-Analysen zeigen, dass Holz-Kreditkarten überwiegend positiv bewertet werden und zwar umso stärker je positiver die Einstellung zur Nachhaltigkeit ist. Die Analyse bestätigt ebenfalls: eine positive Bewertung der Holz-Kreditkarten führt zu einer höheren Erwartung in Bezug auf nachhaltiges Management der Bank. Banken, die Holz-Kreditkarten anbieten müssen diese erhöhten Erwartungen erfüllen können. Andernfalls laufen sie Gefahr mit dem Vorwurf des Greenwashings konfrontiert zu werden, denn einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Müllvermeidung stellen Kreditkarten nicht dar
Best practice : a personalized and humanized environment
Get PDFObjective: This best-practice example shows the positive effect on the behavior of a mentally disabled client with significant behavioral problems after the custom-made change in his built environment. Background: Healthcare organizations are often faced with the difficulty of creating a built environment that has a positive effect on the mental well-being of the users. Ipse de Bruggen is a healthcare organization that offers care and support for the mentally handicapped. They look after clients who need additional individual support due to their behavioral problems and have developed new care concepts for this over the years. With regard to the built environment, however, they found in individual cases that the living environment does not suit the client. The rooms are bare and devoid of atmosphere. It seems that in many cases this has led to even more aggression and destruction. A negative spiral. The organization saw the need to change this and in 2011 commissioned Andrea Möhn Architects, formerly Möhn + Bouman Architects, to examine the built environment and the needs of individual users with major behavioral problems. Methods: The findings are based on the architects’ many years of experience with regard to the target group, a precise observation of the behavior of the user in his personal space as well as interviews with the staff from November 2011 to April 2012. Results: Based on the observations the architects created a tailor-made environment that had a very positive effect on the behavior of the user and thus also on his family, the care staff and the organization. Conclusions: The best practice example shows that for clients with severe behavioral problems a personalized and humanized approach seemed to be the right approach, rather than a flexible spatial solution. The redesigned space gave the client a sense of control, pride, dignity and a sense of well-being. Inspired by this success, the organization started the project "Physical environment, a fixed value in our care” in 2020. Within four years, twelve rooms will be redesigned and their effects on users will be scientifically researched
Healthy buildings supporting living and working of the ageing population
Get PDFThe ageing population demands designing environments while considering their functional needs, desires and wishes. The ICF framework together with the gerontechnological principles can help to have focus on how to adjust or to (re)design the environment for this population. This paper focuses on building-related environmental factors including eHealth solutions. Knowledge and understanding of how the environment is perceived by older people help to set the building performance requirements and gives direction to Improve our research to create healthy environments for future users
Wie beeinflussen die Namen von Fleischersatzprodukten die Akzeptanz der Verbraucher?
Get PDFAbstract English
Meat substitutes are on the rise. How does the naming of meat substitute products influence their acceptance? In a quantitative omnibus survey, six product names for meat substitute products are evaluated in terms of purchase preference. Respondents are asked about their preferred product names. A distinction is made according to the dietary form of the subjects. The product names are differentiated by the strength of the association with meat products. In addition, the extent to which consumers accept names, typically associated with meat-legged products, for naming meat substitutes was tested. Results showed no preference of product names as a function of the subjects' dietary form. The assumption that products with names reminiscent of meat products lead to lower acceptance among followers of meatless, could not be confirmed dietary forms. The acceptance of name additions such as "sausage" or "schnitzel" was constant for all dietary forms. Moreover, no differences in preference can be found with regard to gender. For companies in the industry, this means that when naming meat substitutes, the association with meat-containing products has little influence on their acceptance.
Abstract Deutsch
Fleischersatzprodukte sind auf dem Vormarsch. Wie beeinflusst die Namensgebung von Fleischersatzprodukten deren Akzeptanz? In einer quantitativen Omnibusbefragung werden sechs Produktnamen für Fleischersatzprodukte hinsichtlich der Kaufpräferenz bewertet. Die Befragten werden zu den von ihnen präferierten Produktnamen befragt. Dabei wird nach der Ernährungsform der Probanden unterschieden. Die Produktnamen differenzieren sich durch die Stärke der Assoziation zu Fleischprodukten. Darüber hinaus wurde getestet, inwiefern Verbraucher Bezeichnungen, die typischerweise mit fleischbeinhaltenden Produkten in Verbindung gebracht werden, für die Namensgebung bei Fleischersatzprodukten akzeptieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen keine Präferenz der Produktnamen in Abhängigkeit der Ernährungsform der Probanden. Die Vermutung, dass Fleischersatzprodukte, die mit Fleischprodukten assoziiert werden, zu einer geringeren Akzeptanz bei fleischlosen Anhängern führen, konnte nicht bestätigt werden. Die Akzeptanz von Namenszusätzen wie z.B. „Wurst“ oder „Schnitzel“ war für alle Ernährungsformen gleichermaßen gegeben. Hinsichtlich des Geschlechtes lassen sich keine Unterschiede in der Präferenz feststellen. Dies bedeutet für die Praxis, dass bei der Namensgebung von Fleischersatzprodukten die Assoziation zu fleischhaltigen Produkten wenig Einfluss auf deren Akzeptanz hat
