Older Adults Attitudes Toward And Adoption Of Personal Computers And Computer-Based Lifestyle Assistance

Abstract

This research examined the attitudes of older adults toward personal computers and the many roles they may play in their lives. The findings indicate that mature adults appear receptive to select forms of computer-based lifestyle assistance. Younger, more active older adults who have computer experience appear more receptive. Obstacles to product adoption include cost, psychological fears, and computer literacy.
