About
Claudia Daudén Roquet is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction, child development, and mental health technology. Her work focuses on designing and evaluating novel digital interventions—including socially assistive robots and child-led technologies—to support emotion regulation across the lifespan. In her most cited study (15 citations), she developed and prototyped an in situ, child-led intervention for middle childhood, targeting emotion regulation competence as a transdiagnostic risk factor for psychopathology. This exploratory randomized controlled trial represents a significant shift from traditional clinic-based approaches toward empowering children to self-regulate in their natural environments. Daudén Roquet’s second major contribution (14 citations) examines the feasibility and acceptability of a socially assistive robot to support emotion regulation among highly anxious university students, addressing the critical gap between rising mental health needs and limited campus resources. Her mixed-methods open trial demonstrated that such robotic interventions are perceived as impactful and acceptable, opening new pathways for scalable, on-demand mental health support. By bridging developmental psychology, affective computing, and human-robot interaction, Daudén Roquet is shaping how technology can compassionately and effectively support emotional well-being from childhood through young adulthood.
