“…They pointed out that current ATs and their functionalities are based on the needs of young people and their specific needs are not considered carefully. It is already well established fact that the needs of the PWD are different as compared to others, while current ATs are not tailored to the specific needs of elderly population in general and the PWD in particular (Cho & Lee, 2016). Additionally, if the specific needs of the PWD are not tailored in ATs, then dependence on such ATs can promote aggression among them (Carrillo, et al, 2009).…”

The assistive technologies (ATs) are commonly used for the wellbeing of people with dementia (PWD). Research shows that current ATs are not performing to their best and high rate of AT abandonment still exist. Although empirical evaluations greatly impact AT success, yet only few studies investigated AT usability for PWD. To the best of authors knowledge there is no AT usability evaluation study conducted in the South Asia. Therefore a qualitative study is carried out to identify which AT factors encourage and discourage the PWD through semi-structured interviews. Thematic analysis is used to generate themes and sub-themes. The (happy users, non-happy users and technology and human care) emerged as three main themes while, (communication, monitoring and reminders) as popular AT types. Most PWD use ATs for socialization and health monitoring. Overall the PWD appreciated the role of ATs in their lives, but showed concerns about interface efficacy, function simplicity and elderly requirements adaptation. The already met and unmet needs of the PWD are also investigated. The AT producers should make user interface simpler and tailor future ATs to the specific requirements of the PWD. The user centred techniques should be adopted for the development of new ATs.

“…Mental imagery has been widely examined in consumer behavioral literature, but little attention has previously been paid by researchers of information systems (Wu and Holsapple, 2014). Regarding wearable technology adoption, while the effects of individual cognitive and emotional responses, e.g., perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, social influence, and emotion, on behavioral intention have been found in recent studies (Choi and Kim, 2016;Wu L.-H. et al, 2016;Yang et al, 2016;Cho and Lee, 2017), the potential impact of perceived social risk remains unknown. This study shows that in addition to an indirect effect, mental imagery can increase individual behavioral intention toward wearable technologies by decreasing the perceived social risk and eliciting positive emotional responses.…”

“…Recent studies have found that consumer attitude toward smartwatches is the significant determinant of adoption and/or continuing intention (Choi and Kim, 2016;Wu L.-H. et al, 2016;Hsiao and Chen, 2018). Additionally, consumers' attitudes toward smartwatches or wearable technologies are influenced by cognitive factors, including perceived self-expressiveness, perceived usefulness, and ease of use (Choi and Kim, 2016;Wu L.-H. et al, 2016), and emotional factors, such as enjoyment, entertainment, and emotional value (Choi and Kim, 2016;Wu L.-H. et al, 2016;Yang et al, 2016;Cho and Lee, 2017;Hsiao and Chen, 2018). Some researchers have also suggested that consumers' intention was predicted by product characteristics such as smartwatch novelty, design aesthetics, visual attractiveness, functionality, compatibility, and demonstrability of results (Choi and Kim, 2016;Wu L.-H. et al, 2016;Yang et al, 2016;Jeong et al, 2017;Hsiao and Chen, 2018).…”

Following these findings, a positive emotional response or experience can be identified as an individual's internal benefit.…”

The main objective of this study was to investigate how and when online product presentation influences individual purchase intention of wearable devices in China. This study hypothesized that online product presentation would influence individual mental imagery, which, in turn, would impact purchase intention through perceived social risk and positive emotion, but this effect would be moderated by individualismcollectivism value at the individual level. We performed a laboratory experiment (2 × 2) to collect the data (N = 254). The experimental results indicated that there was a significant interaction effect between the product feature presentation video and usage scenario presentation picture on mental imagery. In addition to a direct effect, mental imagery had an indirect effect on purchase intention through perceived social risk and positive emotion. Additionally, the behavioral effect of perceived social risk was moderated by individualism-collectivism. Specifically, compared with individualists, perceived social risk had a stronger impact on collectivists' purchase intention. This study contributes to a greater understanding of the mechanism through which online product presentation drives purchase intention, with a particular emphasis on how individualism-collectivism value at the individual level moderates consumers' intention to purchase wearable devices.

“…Qualitative explorations of ET use for individuals with physical and cognitive disabilities highlight complex experiences in daily life. A key motivator for continued ET use is increased autonomy (Cho and Lee, 2017). However, individuals also report challenges with use, including learning and maintaining knowledge and manipulating input devices (Hedman et al., 2016; Rosenberg and Nygård, 2016).…”

Introduction: Everyday technology has the potential to increase quality of life for individuals with disabilities. In a society that relies on technology for participation, exploring everyday technology use is a fundamental part of understanding lived experiences of occupation. The meaning and roles individuals with disabilities ascribe to technology may be influenced by sociocultural considerations, such as gender. This interpretive phenomenological study aimed to present an occupational perspective of everyday technology use for men with multiple sclerosis. Method: Three middle-aged men (50-57 years old) with multiple sclerosis participated in an individual semi-structured interview. Data were analysed using a hermeneutic approach of close reading. After the initial analysis, superordinate themes were examined relative to an occupational framework. Findings: The identified themes were 'searching online as means and end' (doing); 'connecting to others and society' (belonging); and 'seeing present and future self' (being and becoming). Conclusion: The meaning of occupational experiences of everyday technology for men with multiple sclerosis are influenced by master narratives of masculinity. Since everyday technology is intertwined with multiple dimensions of occupation, facilitating its use may promote health and quality of life.
