“…The EDU score was determined as 3.33 out of 11, and the life satisfaction was 23.22. The EDU score is similar to of the 0 to 3 out of 9 observed by Koo and Joo [ 21 ]. Life satisfaction was slightly higher than the 3.76 out of 7 reported in Ko and Moon [ 24 ] and slightly lower than the 3.65 out of 5 from Kim, Park, and Song’s study [ 25 ].…”

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), depression, electronic device utilization (EDU) and life satisfaction in older adults and to evaluate the dual mediating effect of EDU and life satisfaction on the relationship between IADL and depression. A secondary data analysis of the 2020 Korean Elderly Survey was carried out with 9906 older adults. The dual mediating effect was analyzed using model 6 of PROCESS Macro for SPSS v. 4.1 (New York, NY, USA). EDU (B = −0.010, 95% CI [0.007, 0.013]) and life satisfaction (B = 0.071, 95% CI [0.064, 0.079]) each had a mediating effect on the relationship between IADL and depression in older adults, and in particular, these two variables were shown to dual mediate (B = 0.017, 95% CI [0.015, 0.019]). This study confirmed that life satisfaction can be increased and depression decreased by improving the ability to use electronic devices to combat the limitations in daily functioning due to aging. It is necessary to establish a strategy to increase EDU as a part of the intervention methods for managing depression in older adults.

“…This resembles the results of a study that showed that 70–74-year-olds exhibited a high ability to understand health information [ 28 ]. A previous study reported that the lower the age of the older adult, the higher the level of informatization [ 14 ]. This is consistent with the higher mean rank (though not statistically significant) of preference (60.34 vs. 48.79%) in our study.…”

“…Previous studies on non-face-to-face services for older adults only identified the attitude and intention to use silver care robot technology [ 13 ] and the experience level in using smart healthcare [ 14 , 15 , 16 ]; however, research on older adults’ needs is limited. A previous study [ 17 ] aimed to confirm the perception, preference, and acceptance of ICT among older adults, but only 15 subjects were included in an isolated area, thereby making it difficult to represent the entire population of older adults.…”

Background: Considering older adults’ interests and physical abilities, non-face-to-face services precipitated positive acceptance and reduced loneliness. Developing non-face-to-face services designed after investigating older adults’ needs is necessary. Research question: What is the need for non-face-to-face services to reduce loneliness among older adults in the community? Methods: A questionnaire was developed through a content validity evaluation of a group of experts based on a prior systematic review. The survey was administered to 100 community-dwelling older adults between 15 July and 31 August 2021. The need for non-face-to-face services for older adults was analyzed. Results: This study found that non-face-to-face services precipitate positive perceptions and satisfy the needs of older adults in the community. Additionally, the older adults preferred integrated content from non-face-to-face services. Through the analysis of preference differences according to the general characteristics, this study shows the possibility of inducing participation by developing content that attracts older adults’ attention. Conclusion: This study is expected to provide basic data for content development of non-face-to-face services to reduce loneliness among older adults in the community by investigating their needs.
