Abstract:
Digital health technologies offer promising solutions for enhancing the quality of life for people with dementia, but they have some drawbacks. The aim of this scoping review was to explain the factors influencing acceptance of such technologies, by identifying and exploring the empirical support for different theoretical models. Following the PRISMA-ScR checklist, data were collected from PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, PsycInfo, and IEEE Xplore. The review explored technology acceptance in people with dementia through any model or theory including the factors that could potentially determine acceptance. Thirty-one articles were included in the review. Different perspectives, approaches, and modifications of well-known technology acceptance models and theories regarding their underlying constructs were reported in the articles selected. Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and social influence, the most studied constructs, have been found to have the greatest impact on the acceptance of different technologies in people with dementia.
