    Abstract: The present study aimed to examine the effects of regular exercise on attitude towards using exoskeletons and the mediating effects of technology anxiety and perceived usefulness among Korean older adults. Data was collected through online recruitment in February 2021. The sample comprised 310 people (Age: 65-89, M=70.18, SD=4.58) who did not report dementia. The dependent variable was the attitude towards using technology, especially lower limb exoskeleton robots for exercise. The independent variable, regular exercise, was coded as a binary variable. The mediating variables were technology anxiety and perceived usefulness measured by the sum of three questions about exoskeleton robots, respectively. Gender, age, education level, and household income were included as control variables. The mediating effect was estimated by serial path analysis and bootstrapping (model fit indices: χ2=18.400, df=8, p & lt;0.05, RMSEA=0.065, CFI=0.973, TLI=0.940, SRMR=0.044). Results showed the total effect of regular exercise was significant (B=1.253, p & lt;0.01) and the total indirect effect of it was significant(B=1.540, p & lt;0.001). There was no significant direct effect of regular exercise on the attitude towards using technology. The association between regular exercise and the attitude of using technology was completely mediated by perceived usefulness (B=1.439, CI=0.569-2.358, p & lt;.01). Although technology anxiety had no mediating effect alone, the serial mediating effect via the path from technology anxiety to perceived usefulness was significant (B=0.119, CI=0.004-0.332, p & lt;.05). This study will be the first empirical study to examine the effects of health habits by expanding the senior technology acceptance model for older adults in Korea.

    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify the types of exercise motivation and examine the association between the types of exercise motivation and social presence about exercise-related gerontechnology among Korean young-olds. In this study, social presence about gerontechnology implies the degree of perception of a robot that helps exercise functions as human-like socially interacting entities (Heerink, 2010). Online survey data collected from the Korean older adults over the age of 65 in February 2021 was used, and the subjects of this study were 154 young-olds aged 65 to 74 who exercise regularly. Latent class analysis (LCA) was conducted to classify the types of exercise motivation, followed by multiple regression analysis. As a result of LCA, the types of exercise motivation was classified with two groups. These groups were named ‘for pleasure and leisure (PL, 77.2%)’ and ‘for maintenance of health (MH, 22.8%)’, respectively. The result of multiple regression showed that compared to the second group (MH), the social presence about gerontechnology was high for the first group (PL) after controlling age, gender, education level, marital status, household income and chronic disease. These results indicate the Korean young-olds’ exercise motivation may vary and expectations for social presence toward exercise-related gerontechnology differ depending on the exercise motivation. To date, the importance of social presence in gerontechnology has tended to be emphasized mainly in the care field. This study suggests that exercise-related gerontechnology devices also need to consider the aspect of social presence especially for young-olds who exercise for pleasure and leisure.

    Abstract: This study examined how the status of frailty moderated the association between the self-efficacy about gerontechnology use and the intention to use gerontechnology (IUG) among Korean older adults. In this study, gerontechnology devices referred to exoskeleton robots for exercise. The data was collected through an online survey in February 2021, and 324 Korean older adults aged 65 and above were included in the analysis (Women: 50.9%, Men: 49.1%). The dependent variable was the intention to use gerontechnology from the Almere model (Heerink, 2010) and the independent variable was self-efficacy about gerontechnology use from the Senior Technology Acceptance Model(Chen & Chan, 2014). Both were measured as continuous variables. The moderating variable was the status of frailty (Non-frail=0, Frail=1). Age, gender, education level, and log-transformed household income were controlled for. Multiple linear regression to examine moderation effect was conducted using PROCESS Macro model 1. The findings showed that frailty status moderates the association between self-efficacy and IUG among Korean older adults. Concretely, the higher self-efficacy about gerontechnology use, the lower IUG for non-frail Korean older adults. However, the main effect of self-efficacy was non-significant for the frail sample. Even though self-efficacy has been known to affect the variables related to technology use or acceptance positively, the results suggest that there may exist differences in research results depending on participants' health status. The type of gerontechnology devices may also have affected the results. Further exploration is needed to the interaction effects of potential influencing factors on the gerontechnology acceptance model.

    Abstract: The present study examined the extent to which online communication skills led to the degree of intergenerational integration mediated through loneliness, focusing on whether such a mediating path would be moderated by age groups. Intergenerational integration is a concept that emphasizes acceptance and flexibility to recognize diversity based on each other’s values across multiple generations or groups of varying ages. The older group included 315 Koreans aged 65 or above, and the younger group included 322 Koreans aged 19 to 29. Both groups completed an online survey conducted from December 2021 through January 2022. The results showed loneliness significantly mediated the association between online communication skills and the degree of intergenerational integration among both older and young adults; the higher the level of online communication skills, the lower the level of loneliness, leading to high levels of intergenerational integration. However, the mediation path was moderated by age; the association between online communication skills and loneliness was stronger for young adults compared to older adults. Additionally, the direct path was moderated by age: the association between online communication skills and intergenerational integration was stronger for older adults compared to young adults. The findings indicate that programs aimed at improving online communication skills (e.g., SNS or video calls) can reduce loneliness and thus promote intergenerational integration in both younger and older adults. This study highlights the importance of promoting online communication ability to increase intergenerational integration of both older and young adults.
