Factors Influencing Older Adults’ Acceptance of Health Monitoring Smart Clothing

Abstract

We aimed to examine the key factors that influence older adults’ perception and intention to wear health monitoring smart clothing. A convenience sample of 376 U.S. older adults was used for data analyses. Influence of functional and aesthetic attributes on older adults’ perception and intention of its use was not supported. The findings imply that older adults who are satisfied with expressive and tracking attributes of health monitoring smart clothing find it useful, easier to use, and socially acceptable, which leads them to be more likely to use it.
