Abstract
The rehabilitation intervention in children with motor or cognitive impairments requires to be effectively measured in terms of
engagement to understand the effects of the rehabilitation process
and to enable more targeted interventions leading to improved
experiences for both children and rehabilitation therapists. Indeed,
the rehabilitation practice may be enhanced by attending to the
client’s signals of engagement in therapy. In this paper, we present
the results of the validation of the PARE scale (Pediatric Assessment
of Rehabilitation Engagement) that was designed to capture the
dimensions of affective, cognitive, and behavioral engagement in
the interaction of clients-rehabilitation providers. Results showed
that the scale can be effectively used for the measurement of the
different components of engagement in intervention settings to
support therapeutic virtual scenarios or the application of robots
to treat motor and cognitive impairments.
