“…The next generational research study in this review demonstrates the use of more advanced e-technologies than research in the previous decades, and this study uses previous research as a basis for an experiment that aims at reducing a generation gap in performance with e-technology. Stoltz-Loike, Morrell, and Loike (2005) conducted three experiments with older adults (50 -69 years of age) to establish initial performance and problem areas in using the software and two other experiments to determine whether modifications based on performance could correct initial problems that the participants had with the software (one based on NIA guidelines and the other based on the results of the first experiment). This study uses previous generational research studies in etechnology to determine that older users have more difficulty with e-technology, and this study focuses on the possibility of using situation-based evaluations and modifications to correct those problems.…”

The Effects of Expertise and Demographic Characteristics on Public Administrators' Attitudes to E-government Raji Msail AlSharari Due to recent advancements in electronic technology (e-technology), research on the developing field has become important for understanding how this technology affects the population and how the population affects this technology. Research on etechnology reveals that demographic characteristics (age, gender, location, and education) and expertise are factors affecting e-technology attitudes and performance. One of the emerging e-technology fields is electronic government (e-government). After reviewing historical research in e-technology, this study reviewed existing egovernment literature to determine key obstacles for public administrators to implement e-government. This study used a survey questionnaire, based on egovernment attitude surveys conducted by Moon (2002) and Moon and Welch (2005), to determine attitudes of 660 randomly selected city and county public administrators chosen from an International City/County Management Association (ICMA) mailing list. A sample of 01 randomly selected city and county administrators was also chosen from an ICMA list as a pilot study to create reliability and validity for the egovernment attitude survey. Both quantitative and qualitative forms of statistical analysis were used to analyze the collected survey data. These results provided an exploratory analysis of differences in public administrator attitudes that could be used to find understanding within public administrator discourse communities or to further future research into methods of resolving these differences. E-government Attitudes iii Dedication I dedicate this to my parents, Msail and Hamdah, who have constantly supported me and encouraged me in all aspects of my life.

Training older workers: Lessons learned, unlearned, and relearned from the field of instructional design

Changing workforce demographics have highlighted the need to provide training and development opportunities for older workers. This article critically examines the current state of research on the use of systematic instructional design procedures to develop work‐related training that is inclusive of older workers. The review reveals a disconnect between what the literature recommends to achieve age‐inclusive design and what is offered as evidence of age‐inclusive design. Age‐related generalizations about cognition and learning capacity often serve as the basis for design decisions, with little attention paid to the role of training context and content. The article recommends that this disconnect be resolved and offers some specific suggestions about how human resource managers can integrate sound instructional design principles into the training and development component of their talent management strategies. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
