About
Su Jung Lee’s research lies at the intersection of special education, language development, and human-robot interaction, with a focused commitment to supporting children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Her most cited work, “The Effect of a Story Intervention on the Syntactic Skills of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders by using an Educational Humanoid Robot” (2016), exemplifies this innovative approach. In this study, Lee investigated how a humanoid robot could be used as a tool in story-based interventions to improve syntactic skills in three children with ASD of the same chronological age. Her findings demonstrated the potential of socially assistive robots to engage young learners in ways that traditional methods may not, opening new pathways for language intervention. Though her citation count is modest, the work’s significance lies in its pioneering integration of robotics into speech-language pathology for neurodiverse populations. Lee’s research contributes to a growing evidence base for technology-enhanced, child-centered interventions, offering practical insights for educators and clinicians seeking to harness interactive tools for developmental gains. Her work underscores a thoughtful, applied approach to bridging engineering and education for social impact.
