About
Jiska J. Aardoom is a leading researcher at the intersection of digital mental health, child psychology, and human-robot interaction. Her work focuses on developing and evaluating innovative, technology-driven interventions to improve mental health and resilience, particularly among children and adolescents. Aardoom’s major contributions include pioneering the use of social robots as delivery agents for mental health training in school settings, as demonstrated in her pilot intervention study on robot-delivered programs to enhance children’s mental health and resilience in Dutch primary schools. This work addresses the critical need for early intervention, given that mental health problems often emerge in childhood and can persist into adulthood, leading to serious outcomes such as substance abuse and depression. Her research has garnered attention for its novel approach to scalable, engaging mental health support, with her most-cited paper accumulating 1 citation to date. Aardoom’s achievements include bridging the gap between robotics and clinical psychology, offering a promising avenue for accessible, stigma-free mental health promotion in educational environments. Her work is particularly relevant for researchers and practitioners interested in digital therapeutics, child development, and the application of artificial intelligence in mental healthcare.
