About
Janja Poje is a researcher whose work bridges rehabilitation robotics and psychophysiology, focusing on how stroke patients interact with robotic training systems. Her most-cited study, “Psychophysiological responses to robot training in different recovery phases after stroke” (2011, 14 citations), pioneered the use of objective physiological measures—such as heart rate and skin conductance—to assess user engagement and psychological state during robot-assisted therapy. This contribution is critical because it addresses a key challenge in rehabilitation robotics: disentangling the effects of physical exertion from emotional or cognitive responses in patients with neurological impairments. By demonstrating that psychophysiological markers can provide reliable feedback on patient recovery phases, Poje’s work helps optimize robotic training protocols for more personalized and effective stroke rehabilitation. Her research underscores the importance of integrating human factors into assistive technology design, offering a pathway to improve patient outcomes through adaptive, responsive robotic systems. Poje’s findings remain influential for researchers developing user-centered rehabilitation tools that account for both motor and psychological recovery.
