Identifying Psychosocial Variables of the Interactive Mobile Interface for Geriatric Persons
2021
This is qualitative
exploratory research that looked into the gap between gerontechnology and
psychosocial wellness. The physical and psychological wellness of geriatric
persons has been developed over the few decades. This has made older people
consumers of the different technologies. This, though, is not satisfactory
enough as the older generation yearns for the worth and sense of belonging that
existed in the traditional world, with the different roles that they played.
With the modernization and the recent pandemic, it distances the older persons
from their loved ones and society, therefore, disengaging from
activities.
This research identified
this gap, and under a research protocol from a legally authorized organization
in Kenya, we approached a philanthropic social home and a community-based daycare
where eight participants gave verbal informed consent to take part in the 10-week
study
