“…The DEMATEL method was developed by the Banelle Institute of Geneva for the sciences and human affairs program between 1972 and 1976 [45]. This approach is able to analyze direct and indirect relations among a set of variables, and by providing a simple diagram, which shows how variables are connected to one another, can provide better insight into the core problems of complex systems and assist decisionmakers to plan a roadmap for improvement [46]. In other words, by converting a complex system into a structural causal relationship, this approach can categorize existing criteria into a cause group and an effect group, which makes it easier for decision-makers to decide which criteria to focus on.…”

“…For example, digital technologies may elicit behavioral changes across a range of health conditions that are required to improve disease and medication management among people aged 60 years or above [18]. Furthermore, interventions for health promotion and disease prevention targeting the needs of older people are often nondigital (only 12 out of 486 reviews addressed eHealth interventions for this population) [19]. Finally, the most common health target of digital interventions for health promotion and disease prevention is physical activity, according to a scoping review [20] and recent systematic reviews that assessed the efficacy of such interventions in older people (Table 1).…”
