Background: Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have the potential to promote healthy aging and increase the quality of life of older adults. However, several barriers like access, performance, psychological, and privacy issues still exist against fully deploying ICT solutions for older adults. To determine useful methods to overcome such barriers, this work investigated the possible factors that prevent elders from directly accepting ICT services based on three field studies. Methods: The Unified Theory of Acceptance of Use of Technology (UTAUT) was adopted as the general reference framework. Results: Performance Expectancy (perceived usefulness) and Facilitating Conditions (provided user support) seem to be the most relevant factors in all field studies. Also, the relevance of Hedonic Motivation (pleasantness of use) emerges. The role of Effort Expectancy (ease of use) seems to be affected by the user profile, which includes education level, present technology skill, and employment status. Conclusions: Overall, results confirm that the reference model variables represent the key factors to predict older adults' viewpoints toward ICT. The use of familiar devices (like TV sets) in the interaction with new technologies was determined to be a significant factor in

“…From the perspective of older people, future services and applications of ICT should support the development of social relations through communication, as they see the main benefits of technology as connecting to family and friends (Ferreira et al, 2014), lamenting how activities such as watching TV used to be a group activity (Papa et al, 2011). Looking at human connectivity beyond family and friends and through activities, Baez and colleagues (2019) pointed out the significant role of mediators or facilitators in connecting older people through ICT in their findings that the use of peer assistants was effective for older people in adapting to technology.…”

Older people, especially those living with dementia, experience significant barriers to meaningful participation in their communities. Focusing on the expansion of an arts-based program to address social inclusion for older people via information communication technology (ICT), this paper identifies the challenges and opportunities of the digital delivery of the Baycrest NBS Sharing Dance Seniors program, a weekly dance class professionally instructed via online-streamed video and facilitated in-person in community and institutional care settings. Findings are drawn from older people and career experiences in community-based, multi-method pilot studies in the Peterborough Region, Ontario, and the Westman Region, Manitoba (2017-19) Canada. Through observations, diaries, focus groups, and interviews featuring the experiences of program instructors, participants, carers, administrators, facilitators, and volunteers, the challenges and opportunities presented by the digital delivery of the Sharing Dance program are analyzed as they relate to understanding social connectivity and relational and multi-dimensional influences on social inclusion. Findings point to the key role of facilitators and in-person support, with implications for the development of social resources and facilitator training in community and institutional settings.

“…Other barriers were the cost of digital TV systems and a perceived lack of human support. Papa [7] conducted focus groups to explore and analyze the user experience of older people with digital TV and, in general, with future services enabled by broadband ICTs. The results show the influence that aspects such as the technological equipment available at home, the attitude towards digital technology and lifestyles can have on older people's interaction with digital TV.…”

With a growing ageing population and the advent of interactive TV (iTV), understanding how older people use iTV services is a timely and important task. Working towards this end, this paper reports on in situ conversations of, and observations with, almost 400 older people, with different levels of educational attainment and experience with ICTs, while talking about and using online video portals and similar interactive systems in Spain, Brazil and Denmark. The results show more similarities than differences in their reasons for adopting online video portals and patterns of use. All our participants used these portals for keeping or remaining in touch with people they trusted. The results also show that privacy online was a common concern to all the participants. Differences in the acceptance of e-government services and the type of content that drove most of their interactions were also found. Implications for designing more accessible and meaningful iTV services are discussed.
