Older Adults’ Adoption of Technology-Mediated Mobility Solutions: A Review and Agenda

Abstract

Mobility is important to older adults' independent living.However, not all older adults' experience mobility seamlessly; instead, they often encounter challenges in mobility.The advent of technology has led to the development of technologymediated mobility solutions.Many studies have been conducted to examine older adults' adoption of technologymediated mobility solutions.Yet, no study, to date, has attempted to systematically review the progress of research in the field, thereby depriving researchers of an overview of older adults' adoption of technology-mediated mobility solutions, which may be useful for early career researchers to gain entry insights and established researchers to gain an updated understanding of the field.To address this gap, this study systematically reviews the literature on older adults' adoption of technology-mediated mobility solutions, encompassing the progress of research in the field, as well as the antecedents and consequences of adopting technology-mediated mobility solutions among older adults.In doing so, this study delivers seminal state-of-the-art insights on a comprehensive encapsulation of antecedents (i.e.ethical considerations, social influences, personal factors, usability elements, and environmental conditions) and consequences (i.e.quality of life) of older adults' adoption of technology-mediated mobility solutions, as well as directions to stimulate future research in the field.
