Abstract

In the context of a fast-aging population, the health problem of the elderly has become a hot spot in the world [1]. In terms of long-term care, wearable health monitoring technology is an excellent way to address these issues [2]. As a kind of wearable system, the smart vest is used as the object of this study. In order to encourage the elderly to use and wear smart vests, this study investigated the factors affecting the acceptance of smart vests; moreover, it developed the technology acceptance model of smart vests for the elderly population. The model was certified with a sample of 152 older adults aged 60 and above. The results show that aesthetics as an external factor has a significant positive impact on perceived usefulness and ease of use. Perceived usefulness positively impacts the attitude of the elderly to use smart vests. This research provides valuable insights for future researchers and practitioners to improve the acceptance of smart vests among older adults.
老年人设计:智能背心在老年人群中的接受度
在人口快速老龄化的背景下,老年人的健康问题已成为世界关注的热点。就长期护理而言,可穿戴健康监测技术是解决这些问题的绝佳途径。智能背心作为一种可穿戴系统,作为本研究的对象。为了鼓励老年人使用和穿着智能背心,本研究调查了影响智能背心接受度的因素;开发了面向老年人群的智能背心技术接受模型。该模型在152名60岁及以上的老年人中得到了验证。结果表明,美学作为一个外部因素对感知有用性和易用性有显著的正向影响。感知有用性正向影响老年人使用智能背心的态度。这项研究为未来的研究人员和实践者提供了有价值的见解,以提高老年人对智能背心的接受度。
