This paper reports the
design plan of a social rehabilitation robot for optimizing social self-management of health. Managing health
with physically and stigmatizing disabling conditions involves managing both physical and social daily functioning.
The robot will use artificial moral emotions that trigger actions that mirror health care ethical behavior to preserve
therapeutic relationships
and empower social participation in people with Parkinson’s disease.
