DESCRIPTION
This Special Issue was open to all authors interested in the topic. However, in a great part it was devoted to the publication of high-quality research papers presented during the 1st Workshop on Social Robots in Therapy: Focusing on Autonomy and Ethical Challenges, held in Chicago, USA, 5 March 2018, in conjunction with the 13th ACM / IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI 2018).
