The Relationship Between Perceived Usefulness and ICT Adoption

Abstract

The use of information and communication technology (ICT) by senior adults is becoming an increasingly essential and complex socioeconomic issue. Understanding the elements that affect older people's adoption of ICT and the consequences for their quality of life, social connections, and general well-being is becoming more and more important as the world's population ages. This study explores the many facets of ICT adoption among older adults, including the obstacles, the drivers, and the implications for their daily life. The study uses a quantitative method approach using surveys conducted by 158 people at Apartment Harmoni, Petaling Jaya, to get insights from a variety of older residents. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology, in particular, has made studies on ICT adoption extremely helpful in understanding it.
