About
Dr. Mayiana Mitevska is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of social robotics and mental health, with a primary focus on developing human-robot interaction frameworks for psychological screening. Her most cited work, the "Furhat PsychScreen Framework" (2024, 2 citations), represents a significant step toward automating psychometric assessments through socially assistive robots. This research demonstrates that initial programming of robots like Furhat can achieve reliable and valid evaluations of psychological conditions, while also revealing critical challenges—such as automatic scoring errors and the need to account for cultural nuances in patient responses. Notably, her findings show that adults generally express only a fair level of satisfaction with robot-led interactions, highlighting the gap between technological capability and user acceptance. Mitevska’s contributions are vital for the future of accessible mental health care, as she systematically addresses both the promise and the pitfalls of deploying social robots in clinical settings. Her work is particularly impactful for researchers and practitioners seeking to design culturally sensitive, error-resistant robotic systems for psychological assessment.
