In the researchers' words
The present experimental study aims to explore the effect of an interactive smart toy on children's stress modulation during a stressful experience compared to a non-interactive prototype. It is expected that children given the interactive prototype will experience faster and more effective stress modulation, in comparison to those being given the non-interactive prototype. These findings will complement the ecologically valid data from week-long at-home deployments of the interactive prototype with families with low socioeconomic status.
