Along with the increasing trend of transactions occurring on social media, the consumption of Chinese cultural and creative products has increased even against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, this article aims to analyze the relationships between virtual community-based social identity and cultural and creative product customer engagement (CE) behaviors. To this end, social identity theory and CE behavior theory were applied to previous research model. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was conducted using data from 520 self-administered questionnaires from online virtual community members. The results show that social identity has a significant effect on customer knowledge behavior, participation behavior, and influencer behavior. Moreover, influencer behavior mediates the effect of social identity on purchase intention. The study also identified gender differences in the mediation for influencer behaviors. Our results suggest that women are more sensitive to influencer behaviors than men, and thus generate more purchase behaviors.
Sports facilities are the material basis for people to participate in physical exercise. The construction of facilities is conducive to improving people’s health and their expectations for a happy life. Sports facilities are part of the infrastructure. The reasonable layout of sports facilities is conducive to shortening the gap between urban and rural areas, achieving common economic prosperity, and promoting social harmony and unity. Public sports facilities are of great significance to urban construction and people’s daily lives. Based on big data and machine vision, this document constructs a big data model framework for urban public sports and leisure facilities, quantifies the diversity and overall coordination of sports facilities, and conducts simulation experiments on the designed urban leisure and sports public facility model. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional method, this method effectively improves the coverage of urban leisure and sports public facilities, and the space utilization rate is increased by 15.32% compared with the traditional method, which maximizes the use of regional space and makes it more convenient for urban residents. It can carry out physical exercise quickly and improve the quality of life of residents.
Currently, internet services are developing rapidly, and the relationship between specific types of internet services and the well-being of older adults is still unclear. This study took a total of 353 urban older adults aged 60 years and above as research objects to explore the impact of the use behavior toward internet-based medical services (IBMS) on their well-being through an online questionnaire. This study integrated well-being theory and peer support theory, constructed an extended structural equation model of technology acceptance based on the technology acceptance model (TAM), and analyzed the variable path relationship. The results confirm the proposed model: older adults improved their eudaimonic well-being through using IBMS; perceived usefulness significantly affected the older adults’ attitudes towards IBMS; perceived ease of use significantly affected the use of IBMS through mediation; peer support significantly affected older adults’ attitudes, willingness, actual use, and well-being in the process. This study proposes that facilitating IBMS use for older adults in the development and design of internet technology programs should be considered in order to provide them with benefits. Moreover, paying attention to peer support among older adults plays an important role in the acceptance of new technologies and improving their well-being. The “peer support” of this study expanded and contributed to the research on the impact on older adults’ well-being and the construction of a technology acceptance model. The peer support in this study extended the influence factor of eudaimonic well-being and contributed to the further development of the TAM.
BackgroundHow did older adults who had to use online medical service during the COVID-19 pandemic bridge the “digital divide”? Taking Internet-based appointment service (IBAS) as an example, this study aimed to investigate the subjective feelings of older adults and evaluate their user-satisfaction.MethodsThis study was based on data from a questionnaire survey involving 325 outpatients 60 years old in shanghai during the COVID-19 pandemic. The satisfaction of IBAS was evaluated and compared from six domains including convenience, visiting time, correct identification of specialists, on-site assist service, COVID-19 prevention, and privacy protection. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the correlation between satisfaction and social factors.ResultsNo significant difference between older adults with or without previous experience using IBAS in terms of overall satisfaction. In the domain of operation difficulty (81.9 vs. 97.5%) and precise medicine (88.1 vs. 96.9%), such as correctly identifying the specialist, the satisfaction of previous user group was significantly higher than that of first-time user group. However, there was no significant difference in the remaining four domains between the two groups. Among the first time IBAS users, the satisfaction was higher than the walk-in registration they used before. Logistic regression revealed that some “intention to use IBAS”-associated social factors such as distance from the hospital, living status, and frequency of hospital visit, were related to the satisfaction of older adults.ConclusionsDriven by the external pandemic and internal intention, older adults would choose and manage network medical resources with their high satisfaction, which essentially demonstrates not only behavioral adjustment but also inner acceptance in older adults. Our findings support the need for promoting the driving force of older adults in using Internet-based medical service as well as transforming the design factors and behavior patterns.
Aiming at enhancing the portability of the smart home management, it is an effective way to use the mobile terminal such as the mobile phone to control the smart home remotely. In addition, properly designed application on the mobile phone can give convenience to monitor the smart home as well as improve the user experience. In this paper, after a comprehensive analysis to the functions of the smart home, a related application based on Android is presented using the scheme of modular design. The application has the functions of monitoring the remote data and controlling the appliances in a long distance. Meanwhile, it can also realize the access control. The test of the application shows that it can receive the sensor data timely and make a proper control of the appliances, which means that it has realized the desired targets.
