The study examined older adults aged 65+ in Sri Lanka to model factors influencing technology acceptance versus technology resistance for digital health care, using an integrated framework combining Theory of Planned Behavior, status quo bias, an equity-implementation model, and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2. In two-phased, multi-analytical modeling, multiple regression (including PROCESS Model 4) found that human-centric, socio-technical, and aging-specific factors significantly influenced elders’ technology use, while human-centric factors had a negative effect; socio-technical factors were not significant for resistance. Mediation analyses indicated that propensity related to technology significantly mediated relationships between human-centric/aging-specific constructs and both acceptance (technology use) and resistance. A deep learning (CNN) approach was used to train and test the data, reporting an F-measure of 72.85% for predicting acceptance versus rejection, with the paper explicitly noting it is a preprint under review and not peer reviewed. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Abstract Digital health care is becoming increasingly important, and the possibilities and chances of digital health care for elderly people are particularly high.There is a substantial part of the elderly population that does not use theinformation technology, which is a precondition for using digital health careservices. In this piece, elderly person’s acceptance to use and resistant to useof such technologies remain an open-ended research problem. The study aimsto develop an integrated model based on a human-centric perspective, sociotechnical characteristics, and aging specific constructs to offer a more accurateindulgent of consumer acceptance or resistance of technology in the aspect ofelderly context. The study integrated Theory of Planned Behavior, Status quobias, Equity-implementation model and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Useof Technology2 model to come up with a dual phenomenon conceptual modelof technology acceptance and resistance. Two-phased multi-analytical models were used. The scope of the study included older adults (people aged 65years or older) in Sri Lanka. The multiple regression analysis and Model 4 ofthe PROCESS macro results revealed that human centric, socio technical andaging specific factors significantly influence on elders to use technology; interestedly, human-centric factors negatively influenced. Moreover, socio-technicalfactor was not a significant predictor in elders’ resistant to use technology. The mediating analysis results showed that propensity related to technology was asignificant mediator on the relationships between Human centric and Technology use; Aging specific and Technology use; Human centric and Resist usingtechnology; and Aging specific and Resist using technology. Thereafter, thedata is trained and tested using a deep learning approach. The model can performed F-measure of 72.85% for predicting technology acceptance or rejection.Technology has been advancing at a faster speed than we have ever imagined.Understanding personal variables such as human-centric and aging specific thataffect the adaptation and resistant process in technology provides valuable information for developers and social planners in the design and execution oftechnology for the elder community
