老年人智能产品需求及使用情况研究

A Research on the Demand and Use of Smart Products of the Elderly

老年人对智能产品的需求及使用直接影响智慧养老产业的发展。以南京市江宁区老年人为调查对象,考察了老年人对智能产品的需求及使用情况。发现老年人对智能产品了解度不高。高需求高使用的只有社交类产品如智能手机;高需求低使用的有健康监测类产品如智能手环和其他健康监测设备、安全预警类产品烟雾报警器、紧急救援类产品智能紧急呼叫设备;低需求低使用的有室内安全监控设备、生活辅助类智能家居设备、记忆辅助类智能药盒、精神娱乐类陪伴机器人。基于计划行为理论和风险社会理论分析发现,老年人的受教育程度、年龄、知觉行为控制的主观感知对其智能产品使用情况有显著影响。建议重视老年人在数字时代中的需求并充分尊重其主体性,根据老年人需求及使用情况设计和推广智能产品,多方协作数字赋能老年人,促进养老服务和智能产品融合创新应用。

The demand and use of smart products by the elderly directly influence the development of the smart elderly care industry.Taking the elderly in Jiangning District of Nanjing as respondents,the demand and use of intelligent products of the elderly are investigated.It is found that the elderly do not have a high understanding of smart products.Only social products such as smartphones are in high demand and frequent use;high demand but low utilization includes health monitoring devices such as smart bracelets and other health monitoring equipment,safety alert devices like smoke detectors,and emergency rescue devices like smart emergency call systems;low demand and low use include indoor security monitoring equipment,smart home equipment for living assistance,smart pill boxes for memory assistance,and spiritual entertainment companion robots.Based on the theory of planned behavior and risk society,it is found that the educational level,age,and subjective perception of perceived behavioral control among the elderly significantly affect their use of smart products.It is recommended to pay attention to the needs of the elderly in the digital age and fully respect their autonomy.Smart products should be designed and promoted according to the needs and use patterns of the elderly,encouraging multi-party collaboration to digitally empower the elderly and promote the integration of eldercare services and innovative applications of smart products.
