The author examines the history of obesity and its distribution by social class and geography, the environmental effects of overconsumption and economic remedies such as the introduction of a sugar tax to reduce obesity. Joshua also considers the politics of corporate social responsibility of food and beverage corporations and how this could prevent poor health decisions. This is the final title in a four volume series 'The Economics of Addictive Behaviours', consisting of three additional volumes on smoking, alcohol abuse and illicit drug abuse. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aMedical economics 606 $aSocial choice 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aClinical health psychology 606 $aMedicine, Preventive 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aHealth Economics 606 $aSocial Choice and Welfare 606 $aSocial Policy 606 $aHealth Psychology 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention 606 $aInternational Political Economy' 615 0$aMedical economics. 615 0$aSocial choice. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aClinical health psychology. 615 0$aMedicine, Preventive. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 14$aHealth Economics. 615 24$aSocial Choice and Welfare. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aHealth Psychology. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy'. 676 $a330.94 700 $aJoshua$b John$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0894176 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255056503321 996 $aThe Economics of Addictive Behaviours Volume IV$92149573 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03357nam 22006375 450 001 9910887882303321 005 20241121140745.0 010 $a9783658452339 010 $a3658452331 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-658-45233-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC31673231 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL31673231 035 $a(CKB)35136401400041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-658-45233-9 035 $a(EXLCZ)9935136401400041 100 $a20240912d2024 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aDesign, Development and Sensemaking of Human-Robot Interaction in Care Settings /$fby Felix Carros 205 $a1st ed. 2024. 210 1$aWiesbaden :$cSpringer Fachmedien Wiesbaden :$cImprint: Springer Vieweg,$d2024. 215 $a1 online resource (209 pages) 311 08$a9783658452322 311 08$a3658452323 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 330 $aSocial robots have significantly advanced in capabilities and availability, gradually becoming part of everyday life. Their new interactive features are relevant to the struggling care sector. As Western societies age, the demand for care services rises, yet the workforce does not grow at the same rate. This book explores the potential of social robots to support the workforce and enhance the well-being of residents in care homes. Using a socio-informatics approach, this research investigates how residents and caregivers interact with social robots, examines and facilitates their appropriation, and provides insights into the development of the robots' software and hardware. The research and development were carried out collaboratively in care homes with the people who work and live there. The findings indicate that social robots can be beneficial in care homes. They broaden the options for social care workers and, when integrated into daily routines, can provide brief respite periods. Additionally, they positively impact residents by engaging them in cognitive and physical activities. However, the robots can only assist, and not replace, care workers. About the author Felix Carros is dedicated to researching human-robot interaction using socio-informatic methods, with a particular focus on the use of robotic systems in care under real-world conditions. His research activities are based at the Chair of Information Systems and New Media of Prof Dr Volker Wulf at the University of Siegen. 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomatic control 606 $aAutomation 606 $aWell-being 606 $aSocial service 606 $aRobotics 606 $aControl, Robotics, Automation 606 $aWell-Being 606 $aSocial Care 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomatic control. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 0$aWell-being. 615 0$aSocial service. 615 14$aRobotics. 615 24$aControl, Robotics, Automation. 615 24$aWell-Being. 615 24$aSocial Care. 676 $a629.8924019 700 $aCarros$b Felix$01804778 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910887882303321 996 $aDesign, Development and Sensemaking of Human-Robot Interaction in Care Settings$94352987 997 $aUNINA
