The purpose of this study is to investigate the research trends in the field of technology acceptance of older adults and present a review. To this end, this review followed PRISMA guidelines and analyzed 119 dissertations and journal articles published in South Korea from 2000 to 2020. First, as a result of summarizing quantitative trends in the publications, the number of published articles concerning technology acceptance of older adults was very small before 2012, but gradually increased since 2012. Specific research topics were classified into ① the use of information technology and digital devices, ② digital literacy and information gaps, ③ physical and psychological health, ④ support services and facilities for older adults, and ⑤ others. Second, as a result of conducting content analysis, most of the studies dealt with mobile phones or smartphones when it comes to the type of technology. In the case of the studies based on technology acceptance models, most of them adopted Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Higher level of education and self-efficacy were one of the motivators to promote technology acceptance among older adults, while old age and higher level of technology anxiety were identified as barriers. Based on these results, the present study synthesized the discussions and proposed suggestions for future research. Additionally, after reviewing the existing literature, we proposed the Technology-Based Active Aging Enhancing Model (T-BAEM)

This study attempted to verify the effect of robots on the social health of older adults using Social welfare centers. A total of eight programs (60 minutes per session) were conducted from February 2022 for men and women aged 60 or older in the control group (n=35) and experimental groups (Silbot users, n=14; Bomi users, n=21). The paired t-test and the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and hierarchical regression analysis were used to compare the outcome variables of the experimental group (Silbot users, Bomi users) and the control group. As a result, it was confirmed that the group participating in the 'Silbot' program had a positive effect on both social support and subjective isolation compared to the control group, and the group using 'Bomi' confirmed a partial positive effect only on social support. The results of this study have the significance of overcoming the limitations of previous studies that looked at the effectiveness of the cognitive function of the elderly with cognitive decline, and extending the effectiveness of robot utilization programs to social health variables for the older adults using welfare centers for the older adults. This study verifies the effectiveness of group programs using robots for social health promotion and expands the function of robots in senior welfare centers to increase the need for developing various contents. In addition, it was suggested that organizations such as senior welfare centers should seek and discover ways to utilize elderly-friendly technologies such as robots.

This study explored the digital aging experiences of older adults who create digital content from the perspective that older adults are active participants in the current digital society. Eight older adults who had been creating digital content for at least six months shared their experiences. The interview data were analyzed based on the Grounded Theory. Findings indicated that the participants showed common psychological characteristics, life experience characteristics, and social and environmental factors in later life that became the foundation for digital content creation. In the introductory stage of digital content creation, older adults passively utilized available resources. As they progressed to the more sophisticated stage of creating digital content, they actively interacted with existing resources and developed digital skills. They minimized the negative influences of obstacles in the digital aging process by utilizing the resources they already had. Digital content creation made them experience active aging and it allowed them to continue digital content creation. This experience led to the virtuous cycle structure of digital content production. Based on these results, intervention strategies for digital aging in middle and old age and educational methods to improve digital competence for older adults were discussed.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness and applicability of applying intervention strategies for the formation of healthy lifestyles in the elderly. The subjects of this study were pre-evaluation and post-evaluation, a total of 8 sessions (twice a week, 70-90 minutes) targeting 7 elderly people living in the community. Intervention strategies provided opportunities and experiences for various lifestyle components(physical activity, eating habits, social relationships, and social participation), and became plans for improvement, value formation, and habit formation (knowldge, evaluation, experience, and planning). Pre- and post-intervention assessments were conducted to examine behavioral changes in lifestyle, value system, self-efficacy, and satisfaction at the end of the intervention. For data analysis, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were performed using SPSS 26.0. Lifestyle change, values, and self-efficacy increased after the intervention, but they were nor statistically significant. Satisfaction with the application of the intervention strategy was found to be very high. Through this study, we confirmed the possibility of lifestyle change in the elderly and at the same time confirmed the participants’ positive response to the introduction and application of the intervention strategy. Efforts to introduce and expand the application of intervention strategies for the formation of healthy lifestyles for the elderly should be continued.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of future time perspective on self-esteem among Korean young and older adults. The participants were young adults aged from 20 to 29 (n=157) and older adults aged 60 or older (n=150). Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted. After adjusting for covariates, the results showed that age group moderated the relationship between future time perspective and self-esteem. The test of a conditional effect of age group demonstrated that young and older adults who reported higher levels of future time perspective tended to have higher self-esteem. Our findings suggest that adopting an open-ended future time perspective could positively impact the self-esteem of both young and older adults in South Korea. In addition, based on our findings, we shed light on the role of future time perspective as a psychological intervention to enhance self-esteem among young and older adults in South Korea.

Since the National Long-Term Care Insurance of 2008, licensed caregivers for older adults have dramatically increased in Korea. In contrast to such trends, their care capacity has been socially concerned about violation against human rights such as elder abuse including physical restraints. The distinction between physical restraints and physical abuse is ambiguous at care settings which has brought in hot debate on the violation of human rights. Therefore, we investigated the extent to which caregivers’awareness of physical restraints and reasons of elder abuse and their witness of physical restraints are associated with their physical restraints on older adults. We used the secondary data collected from 3,859 licensed caregivers working at about 3,000 day care centers across the nation in 2017. First, we found that 10.7% of caregivers performed restrictive interventions. Second, the awareness of physical restraints, witness of others’physical restraints, and their own physical restraints are related to each other. Lastly, logistic regressions confirmed that caregivers’poor awareness of physical restraints, more witness of physical restraints by other caregivers, and higher perception of victim’s personality problems mainly causing elder abuse were more likely to increase their use of physical restraints. These findings suggest that care environment insensitive to human rights might lead to elder abuse by over-utilizing physical restraints. Also, it is fundamental to develop professional care culture of licensed caregivers towards person-centered care.

The purpose of this research is to verify the mediating effect of social isolation within the process of perceived elderly stigma affecting depression and to examine gender differences. Based on the results, this study aimed to find ways to alleviate elderly depression. This study drew upon the data from the ‘Age Integration and Generation Integration Survey’conducted in 2018, analyzing 600 elderly people above the age of 65. Structural equation modeling and multi-group analysis were conducted to examine the research model using SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0 programs. The results of this study are as follows. First, perceived elderly stigma has a direct effect on depression. Second, social isolation has a mediating effect on the association between perceived elderly stigma and depression. Third, there was no statistically significant difference between male and female groups. However, there were differences in the mediating effect between two groups. Based on the results of the study, we suggest the need for intervention to reduce elderly stigma and social isolation which both affect depression. We also discussed the limitation of the research and the suggestions for the future research.

This study aims to verify the mediating effect of depression in affecting life satisfaction of seniors with Internet addiction. To this end, 286 people aged above 65 old were surveyed online, and multiple regression analysis was conducted using Hayes (2018)'s PROCESS macro. The verification of the indirect effect was confirmed by performing the bootstrap method. As a result of the analysis, it was found that depression was completely mediated in the relationship between Internet addiction and life satisfaction in the elderly. In summary, first, Internet addiction was found to have a positive correlation with depression. Second, Internet addiction was found to have a negatively correlated with life satisfaction. Third, when Internet addiction and depression, which are independent and mediating variables, were put together, the influence of Internet addiction on life satisfaction did not appear. Therefore, it can be seen that Internet addiction in seniors affects depression as a complete medium rather than directly affecting life satisfaction. According to the results of this study, it was suggested that to improve the life satisfaction of the elderly, the Internet use should be maintained to a healthy degree, and to prevent and treat depression, welfare services for the elderly and daily resources should be expanded. In addition, different appropriate alternatives are needed by identifying the characteristics of each age group within seniors. It was also proposed to systematize group counseling treatment for the elderly addicted to the Internet and provide family counseling treatment programs. In addition, suggestions and limitations such as customized case management services for each preventive case for the elderly at potential risk of Internet addiction and depression were presented.

This study aims to find out whether dual task training using computerized cognitive rehabilitation programs is effective in improving the overall function of o lder a dults u sing t he m ethod of s ystematic r eview. A n database s earch w as p erformed u sing CINAH L, P ubmed, Scopus, and Web Of Science from January 2017 to December 2021. To collect literature the following terms were used; “dual task” AND “Computerized cognitive training” AND (“Older” OR “Elder”). The PEDro scale was used for quality assessment. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) Scale and PICOTS-SD (Participation, Intervention, Comparisons, Outcomes, Timing of Outcome Measurement, Settings, Study design) were used for quality assessment and providing a systematic basis of the literature. In the five finally selected studies, a total of 1,073 older adults with an average age of 64.0 to 82.7 years were recruited. The average time to perform one intervention was 58 minutes, and the most common was three times a week, and the intervention period ranged from 8 to 12 weeks. In a total of five studies, physical function factors, cognitive factors, behavioral factors, daily life function factors, and weakness factor evaluation tools were used to confirm the overall function of older adults. Five studies were found to have significant effects in at least one area, including physical function, cognitive function, behavioral function, ability to perform daily life activities, and weakness after dual task training. Further work is needed evaluating not only the assessment tool but also the performance and the level of dual tasks in order to more clearly understand the effect on the overall function of older adults.
本研究旨在了解使用计算机认知康复程序的双任务训练是否能有效地利用系统观察的方法改善成人的整体功能。2017年1月至2021年12月，使用CINAH L、p Submed、Scopus和Web Of Science进行了数据库搜索。为了收集文献，使用了以下术语：；“双重任务”与“计算机化认知训练”与（“老年人”或“老年”）。PEDro量表用于质量评估。物理治疗证据数据库（PEDro）量表和PICOTS-SD（参与、干预、比较、结果、结果测量时间、设置、研究设计）用于质量评估，并为文献提供系统基础。在最终选定的五项研究中，共招募了1073名平均年龄在64.0至82.7岁之间的老年人。进行一次干预的平均时间为58分钟，最常见的是每周三次，干预期为8-12周。在总共五项研究中，使用身体功能因素、认知因素、行为因素、日常生活功能因素和弱点因素评估工具来确认老年人的整体功能。五项研究被发现在至少一个领域具有显著影响，包括身体功能、认知功能、行为功能、进行日常生活活动的能力以及双重任务训练后的虚弱。不仅需要评估评估工具，还需要评估双重任务的表现和水平，以便更清楚地了解对老年人整体功能的影响。

The Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) Scale and PICOTS-SD (Participation, Intervention, Comparisons, Outcomes, Timing of Outcome Measurement, Settings, Study design) were used for quality assessment and providing a systematic basis of the literature. In the five finally selected studies, a total of 1,073 older adults with an average age of 64.0 to 82.7 years were recruited. The average time to perform one intervention was 58 minutes, and the most common was three times a week, and the intervention period ranged from 8 to 12 weeks. In a total of five studies, physical function factors, cognitive factors, behavioral factors, daily life function factors, and weakness factor evaluation tools were used to confirm the overall function of older adults.

This study aims to examine the effects of volunteering characteristics on successful aging and mediation effects of volunteer satisfaction and gender differences, along with the relationships among these variables. A survey was given to older adults aged over 60 years in G city and Jeolla Province. 542 participants that have volunteer experiences were included in this study. The results were as follows: First, the mean score for successful aging was 3.87(range 1~5) and the successful aging score of males was higher than females. Second, the mean score of the number of monthly hours of volunteering was 10.11 hours but gender differences were not found. However, motivation to participate in male was higher than female. The mean score of volunteer satisfaction was 4.06(range 1~5) but no gender differences were identified. Third, the number of monthly hours was significantly associated with successful aging in male. Fourth, both male and female had mediation effects of volunteer satisfaction in the relationship between motivation to participate and successful aging. However, volunteer satisfaction between the number of monthly hours and successful aging showed mediation effects in male. Based on the results, the implications of policy and practice to improve successfu aging were discussed.
