About
Xianying Lu’s research focuses on the intersection of gerontechnology, human-robot interaction, and caregiving, with a particular emphasis on understanding user attitudes toward care robots (CR) in aging societies. Her most cited work, a mixed-methods systematic review on informal caregivers’ attitudes toward care robots, critically examines how primary care providers perceive robotic assistance in elder care. This study highlights both the potential of CR to alleviate the global aging crisis and the persistent barriers to adoption, such as trust, ethical concerns, and cultural resistance. By synthesizing qualitative and quantitative evidence, Lu’s review provides a foundational framework for designing user-centered robotic interventions that align with caregivers’ needs. Her research underscores the importance of integrating caregiver perspectives into technology development, a crucial step for successful implementation. With 3 citations since 2025, this work has already sparked dialogue in health technology and human-robot interaction fields. Lu’s contributions are particularly valuable for students and researchers exploring how robotic systems can be ethically and effectively deployed in care settings, bridging the gap between technological innovation and real-world caregiving dynamics.
