Cognitive Development During Adulthood01:30

Cognitive Development During Adulthood

54
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Technology integration in healthcare presents challenges in design, development, and implementation, with user experience significantly impacting adoption rates.
  • Involving end-users (patients, healthcare professionals) in the design phase is crucial for developing effective technological tools and improving health outcomes.
  • Many health applications fail due to a lack of end-user and healthcare professional involvement during development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop semAPP (spatial and episodic memory assessment application), a 360° media-based tool for assessing memory in aging individuals through simulated real-life scenarios.
  • To evaluate the usability and user experience of semAPP within an end-user population.

Main Methods:

  • Developed semAPP, featuring object recognition and spatial memory tasks within immersive virtual environments.
  • Deployed the application on iPads and assessed usability and user experience in 34 older adults (16 healthy, 18 with mild cognitive impairment).
  • Utilized qualitative and quantitative measures, including descriptive, parametric, and correlation analyses to compare groups and examine technology acceptance.

Main Results:

  • Both healthy older adults and those with mild cognitive impairment found semAPP easy to use and expressed willingness to adopt it.
  • Usability is influenced by factors such as presentation, functionality, system performance, user interaction, attitudes, skills, and personality.
  • The study demonstrated a positive user experience with the semAPP tool.

Conclusions:

  • semAPP is a viable tool for assessing older patients, including those with mild cognitive impairment.
  • Designing and evaluating technological tools requires consideration of specific target populations, not just the general user base.
  • User-centered design approaches are vital for successful technology implementation in healthcare for aging populations.
