    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 the impact of the age-friendly environment on the association between cognitive ability and the attitude towards gerontechnology. The participants were 277 Korean young-old age 65 through 74. The data were collected by an online survey conducted in February 2021. The dependent variable was the attitude towards gerontechnology sum of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived adaptability (Heerink et al., 2010; Xu et al., 2015). The independent variable was the cognitive ability of participants to report on their own. The moderating variable was the age-friendly environment sum of physical, service-side, and cultural conditions. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to determine the relation between cognitive ability and the attitude towards gerontechnology. The moderating effect was then analyzed using PROCESS macro and bootstrapping. Results show that cognitive ability has a positive effect on the attitude towards gerontechnology, and the age-friendly environment has softened its effectiveness. When participants were living in a more age-friendly environment, their attitude toward gerontechnology was less affected by their cognitive ability. However, when age-friendly environmental condition scores above 62 (out of 75), the environmental aspect did not affect the association between cognitive ability and attitudes to gerontechnology. This study suggests that the age-friendly environment can narrow the disparity of the attitude towards gerontechnology depending on the cognitive capability levels under certain conditions. Regarding the attitude towards technology may affect the actual use, the possibility of environmental help is meaningful.

    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: Being an “aged” society, only recently in Korea have there been growing interests in well-dying and end-of-life planning. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the factors associated with the level of end-of-life planning among Korean older adults. For the analyses, 2017 National Survey of Older Koreans was utilized and the sample was 10,073 older adults aged 65 and above. The independent variables were age, gender, employment, education level, marital status, household income, religion, number of children, and life satisfaction. The dependent variable, the level of end-of-life planning, was measured as the sum of five items of the question asking whether they have prepared the following items in preparation for end-of-life: shroud (8.3% prepared), cemetery/charnel house (25.1% prepared), mutual aid society (13.7% subscribed), will (0.5% prepared), lectures in preparation for end-of-life (0.4% participated). The results from multiple regressions using STATA 15.0 indicated that the level of end-of-life planning was significantly associated with age (b=.02, p & lt;.001), gender (b=-.07, p & lt;.001), education level (b=.02, p & lt;.01), household income (b=2.56, p & lt;.001), religion (b=.06, p & lt;.001), number of children (b=.04, p & lt;.001), and life satisfaction (b=.17, p & lt;.001). That is, they have planned more for their end-of-life when older in age, female, more educated, wealthier, with religion, had more children, and more satisfied with life. The findings from this study suggest that political interventions are required to promote end-of-life planning education especially for less educated older adults with low income for their “well-dying”. Further researches are needed to explore other personal/interpersonal factors associated with end-of-life planning.

    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 present study aims to investigate how personal relationship satisfaction moderate the associations between types of social support providers and the subjective perceptions toward gerontechnology among Korean older adults. Data were collected by an online survey in February 2021. The sample was 256 older Koreans who have a partner and children (N=109 older adults with low personal relationship satisfaction, N=147 older adults with high personal relationship satisfaction, Age: 66-88, M=69.91, SD=4.19). The dependent variables for the subjective perceptions toward gerontechnology were attitude toward using gerontechnology and anxiety for gerontechnology. Independent variables were four types of social support providers (spouse, children, siblings/relatives, and friends/neighbor). Personal relationship satisfaction was a binary moderator, dividing the sample into low and high personal relationship satisfaction groups. We applied multigroup structural equation modeling. The results showed associations between social support providers and subjective perceptions toward gerontechnology differed by the quality of personal relationships. In detail, receiving support from spouses was associated with the lower level of anxiety of using gerontechnology among older adults in the low personal relationship satisfaction group. Moreover, receiving support from spouses was associated with a higher level of attitude toward using gerontechnology in the high personal relationship group. Receiving social support from other providers were not significant in both groups. The findings imply that the partner living with was salience for positive perception toward gerontechnology. Furthermore, support from spouses may differently work on the subjective perception toward gerontechnology by the quality of personal relationships.

    Abstract: This study examined the mediating effects of facilitating conditions (FC) on the association between types of social support providers and attitude toward using gerontechnology (AUG) or between types of social support and AUG. The sample was 256 older Koreans having a partner and children (N=256; 66-88 years old; M=69.91; SD=4.19). The dependent variable was AUG in terms of an exoskeleton robot for exercise. There were two kinds of independent variables: 1) four types of social support provider (spouse, children, siblings/relatives, and friends/neighbors), and 2) four types of social support (emotional, instrumental, physical, and financial support). Mediating variable was calculated as the mean of FC from five questions. There were two analytic steps: 1) structural equation modeling with four latent variables about types of social support provider, and 2) path analysis with four types of social support if only for significant providers at the first analysis. The results from the first step of analysis showed that only social support from spouses had a significant effect on AUG via FC to use gerontechnology. In the second step of analysis, emotional support from spouses was associated with the higher level of AUG via FC to use gerontechnology. The findings could shed light on the salience of emotional support from spouses in terms of the positive attitude on technology usage in later life through enhancing FC for technology acceptance.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to identify distinct patterns of cognitive function trajectory among Korean older women in single households and to investigate their associated factors. We used data from the five waves of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (KLoSA), a nationally representative longitudinal survey collected biennially from 2006 to 2014. The sample was 244 women aged 65 or above who had maintained the single household status for the five waves. Using Growth Mixture Modeling, distinct patterns of cognitive function trajectory were identified. Then, multinomial regression analysis was employed to examine the associations between identified trajectories and various factors (socio-demographic, health-related, psychological, and interpersonal factors at wave 1). Results showed that there were three distinct patterns of cognitive function trajectory: ‘maintaining-low’ (20.9%), ‘moderate-decreasing’ (33.6%), and ‘maintaining-high’ (45.5%). Specifically, compared to the ‘maintaining-low’ group, younger women were more likely to belong to the ‘moderate-decreasing’ group and the ‘maintaining-high’ group. Furthermore, those with higher household income, and who participated in more various types of social activities (e.g., participation in leisure/culture/sports clubs, volunteering work) were more likely to belong to the ‘maintaining-high’ group. Compared to the ‘moderate-decreasing’ group, those who were younger and participated in more various types of social activities were more likely to belong to the ‘maintaining-high’ group. Findings suggest that socioeconomic status and social engagements may be critical for cognitive function among older women in single households, and encouraging them to remain socially active may help prevent poorer cognitive outcomes.
