About

Siti Farah Suraya Mohd Hashim is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics and developmental psychology, with a primary focus on human-robot interaction for therapeutic applications. Her seminal work, "Humanoids in Autism Therapy: The Child Perspective" (2014), established foundational insights into how children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) perceive and engage with humanoid robots, demonstrating that these technologies can serve as powerful mediators in psychological intervention. By shifting the lens to the child's viewpoint, her research has shaped how therapists and engineers design robotic systems that foster social communication and emotional engagement in ASD populations. With 3 citations on this landmark paper, her contributions have influenced subsequent studies exploring robot-assisted therapy. Her work underscores the transformative potential of innovation in mental healthcare, bridging engineering and clinical practice to offer scalable, engaging treatment solutions. Dr. Hashim’s research continues to inspire new generations of researchers investigating how technology can humanize therapy and improve outcomes for neurodiverse individuals.
