Abstract
Purpose: To rapidly develop the Attitudes Toward Smart Speaker Integration for Self-Management of Chronic Conditions (ASSIST) survey to evaluate attitudes toward various smart speaker functions for guiding a chronic disease self-management intervention among low-income older adults with chronic conditions and cognitive impairment.
Method: The development process included four phases: conceptualization and survey category determination, item development, content validation, and refinement. An expert panel of nurse researchers and health informatics researchers assisted in identifying self-management categories and developing survey items by providing iterative feedback.
Results: Six major categories of chronic condition self-management were identified. The survey initially comprised 29 items within the six categories, later refined to a final set of 22 items, each reflecting relevant self-management tasks that could be supported by smart speakers.
Conclusion: The ASSIST survey offers a practical tool for assessing perceived usefulness of various smart speaker-based tasks in chronic disease management that can inform an individualized intervention design for underserved older adults with cognitive impairment, although further validation is necessary to broaden its application.

期刊介绍:
Research in Gerontological Nursing is a forum for disseminating peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary, cutting-edge gerontological nursing research and theory to investigators, educators, academicians, clinicians, and policymakers involved with older adults in all health care settings. The Journal accepts manuscripts reporting research, theory, integrative and systematic reviews, instrument development, and research methods with the aims of improving the wellness and quality of care of the older adult population. Theory papers should advance gerontological knowledge, and integrative reviews should provide an analysis of the state of the science and provide direction for future research.
