摘要

专家们对主要使用数字技术预防痴呆症的看法同时具有“老年技术乐观主义”和怀疑犹豫的特点。尽管人们希望通过预防技术在预防痴呆症方面取得进展，但专家们也指出了预防的复杂性、环境因素和公共卫生政策的重要性，以及过度关注个人干预的危险。在不质疑这些技术对许多人的积极影响的情况下，我们声称专家们的模棱两可揭示了一种更深层次的担忧，一种基于“支持自主”幻想的“残酷乐观主义”。

Emerging Technologies for Preventing the 'New' Dementia: Ambiguous Optimism in the Canadian Context.

Experts' views on the use of mostly digital technologies for dementia prevention are characterized by a simultaneity of "gerontechnological optimism" and skeptical hesitancy. Despite the hope for progress in dementia prevention through preventive technologies, experts also point to the complexity of prevention, the importance of environmental factors and public health policies, and the danger of an excessive focus on individual interventions. Without questioning the positive impact such technologies can have on many people, we claim that the experts' ambiguity reveals a deeper concern, a kind of "cruel optimism" that is based on a fantasy of "supported autonomy".

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
