Abstract

Nowadays, elderly people represent a large group of digital products/services users that has increased steadily since the popularity of smart phones and tablets. However, elderly people’s online behaviors let their digital privacy at a high risk situation. This paper uses the risk management theory to study the digital privacy risk of the elderly. First,presents an extensive empirical of privacy related behaviors of elderly residents form 3 residential communities in a large Chinese city. And then evaluates the impact of risk factors. Finally, the Borda count list of risk factors was given to help the elderly and their families protect digital privacy more effectively. The research shows that the digital privacy of the elderly were violated by the risk of incentives mainly from two aspects: First, privacy awareness is weak, they do not pay attention to the privacy options which provided by digital products/services, and prone to disclose too many personal information;Second, do not have enough IT knowledge to protect their digital privacy.
老年人数字隐私风险的实证研究
如今,老年人是一个庞大的数字产品/服务用户群体,自智能手机和平板电脑普及以来,这一群体一直在稳步增长。然而,老年人的上网行为让他们的数字隐私处于高风险的境地。本文运用风险管理理论对老年人的数字隐私风险进行研究。首先,对中国某大城市3个居住社区的老年居民的隐私相关行为进行了广泛的实证研究。然后评估风险因素的影响。最后给出了风险因素Borda计数表,以帮助老年人及其家庭更有效地保护数字隐私。研究表明,老年人的数字隐私受到激励风险的侵害主要来自两个方面:一是隐私意识淡薄,不重视数字产品/服务提供的隐私选择,容易泄露过多的个人信息;二是没有足够的IT知识来保护自己的数字隐私。
