Development of a Evaluation Tool for Age-Appropriate Software in Aging Environments: A Delphi Study
<|reference_start|>Development of a Evaluation Tool for Age-Appropriate Software in Aging Environments: A Delphi Study: Objective: We aimed to develop a dependable reliable tool for assessing software ageappropriateness. Methods: We conducted a systematic review to get the indicators of technology ageappropriateness from studies from January 2000 to April 2023.This study engaged 25 experts from the fields of anthropology, sociology,and social technology research across, three rounds of Delphi consultations were conducted. Experts were asked to screen, assess, add and provide feedback on the preliminary indicators identified in the initial indicator pool. Result: We found 76 criterias for evaluating quality criteria was extracted, grouped into 11 distinct domains. After completing three rounds of Delphi consultations,experts drew upon their personal experiences,theoretical frameworks,and industry insights to arrive at a three-dimensional structure for the evaluation tooluser experience,product quality,and social promotion.These metrics were further distilled into a 16-item scale, and a corresponding questionnaire was formulated.The developed tool exhibited strong internal reliability(Cronbach's Alpha is 0.867)and content validity(S-CVI is 0.93). Conclusion: This tool represents a straightforward,objective,and reliable mechanism for evaluating software's appropriateness across age groups. Moreover,it offers valuable insights and practical guidance for designing and developing of high-quality age-appropriate software,and assisst age groups to select software they like.<|reference_end|>
