An excellent comment. I'll also ask what, exactly, is meant by "builds" the robot. Is the survey referring to the hands-on practice of constructing the physical structure of the robot, or the more theoretical practice of designing the robot?

Is programming part of building?

And what is meant by "mostly"? If students do a number of time consuming low-skill jobs (cutting and cleaning aluminum for welding) and an adult does a relatively brief high-skill job (welding it)... has the task been done "mostly" by students or by adults....?
