The need for strong partnerships was reiterated, with some studies identifying the impact of relational interactions and social ties.
It is a process of social and relational interactions that are fundamental to children's later development.
We approach this analysis from a complex adaptive systems science perspective with its focus on the relational interactions of health and healthcare variables [ 24] and the unified approach to the philosophy of science as suggested by Schurz [ 23].
Attachment theory centrally assumes that early relational interactions are internalized and gradually organised into relational schemas.
(This also represents a high level of relational integration).
These analyses revealed a main effect of Reward for both means and medians (F 1, 84) = 4.8263, p=0.031 and F 1, 84) = 6.8350, p=0.011, respectively) but no main effect of Relational Distance and no interaction with Relational Distance.
The authors found that a range of relational factors including reduced opportunities for interaction, cultural obstacles, differing frames and worldviews, and mistrust impeded the effective translation of knowledge into policy.
It may start in a fragile way from calculus-based trust [34], where participants dryly judge whether participation is promising or not, to the level of relational trust (ibid)., where repeated interactions have provided more clarity about mutual expectations and reliability, thereby setting the stage for exploring a more long-term future instead of being preoccupied with daily matters only.
This can be helpful given that a good patient experience is about both 'the what' (transaction) and 'the how' (relational) of interaction with providers [ 16].
We will examine how adding features of relational AI to a social robot impacts longitudinal child-robot learning interactions, including children's learning, engagement, and relationships.
