This study examines differences in computer-related self-efficacy and anxiety in subgroups of older adults, and changes in those measures after exposure to a systematic training program and subsequent computer use. Participants were volunteers in the Intelligent Systems for Assessment of Aging Changes study (ISAAC) carried out by the Oregon Center...

Objective: Remote telepresence provided by tele-operated robotics represents a new means for obtaining important health information, improving older adults' social and daily functioning and providing peace of mind to family members and caregivers who live remotely. In this study we tested the feasibility of use and acceptance of a remotely control...

To describe a longitudinal community cohort study, Intelligent Systems for Assessing Aging Changes, that has deployed an unobtrusive home-based assessment platform in many seniors homes in the existing community. Several types of sensors have been installed in the homes of 265 elderly persons for an average of 33 months. Metrics assessed by the sen...

... However, there are studies related to factors and barriers associated to technology adoption by older adults, which showed these constructs previously mentioned do in fact, affect older adults' use of technologies (Andrews et al., 2019;Chiu & Liu, 2017;Czaja et al., 2006;Mitzner et al., 2010;Navabi et al., 2016;Vaportzis et al., 2017;Wild et al., 2012). These studies did not use UTAUT model in their data analysis. ...
... 3) Driving hazards were not communicated clearly by the robot. 4) Robot transitions from solid floor to carpet [108] were problematic. Participants perceived that the robot is easy to use. ...
... The present study demonstrates proof-of-concept data supporting the utility of light sensors for the long-term continuous recording of light exposure. These sensors were remotely deployed to participants already participating in an ongoing longitudinal project within the Oregon Center for Aging and Technology (ORCATECH) at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) called the Collaborative Aging Research using Technology (CART) study [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. CART was developed as an interagency (National Institutes of Health and Department of Veterans Affairs) resource-related multicomponent project to develop and validate an infrastructure for digital health monitoring and intervention delivery that could be incorporated into the daily life of a diverse population of older adults [12]. ...
