Social Software to the Benefit of the Elderly – Planning an Experiment
Original language description
After an investigation on consumer thinking and behaviour with specific focus on adopting advanced technology by the elderly, we are proposing an experiment to evaluate the findings achieved so far. The plan involves designing and implementation of a new prototype social software with certain unique functions. Statistical research conducted with the help of the proposed software will involve collection of both soft data, such as experiences and opinions of application users collected in their natural settings within the software, and hard data consisting of statistics about usage of the software, such as interactions with other users. The data will be matched and compared in order to evaluate three hypotheses about the process of a technology evaluation. The paper is presenting a research-in-progress. Among the goals of the paper is to raise awareness of the specifics of developing a software with inexperienced elderly users on mind, and also to get a feedback regarding the outlined application and the intended experiments.
