Emerging digital technologies have the potential to motivate children’s interaction with nature. However, as end-users of such tools, children hardly been involved in their design process. This paper aims investigate desired characteristics tools for an ideal nature from perspective. We conducted exploratory study, combining outdoor activity and a co-design workshop, 23 secondary school Netherlands. used multimodal approach children-nature model framework analyze designs. Findings show that...
Background: Since subjective cognitive decline (SCD) was standardized in 2014, there have been few studies reporting the risk factors and neuropsychological assessment characteristics of SCD (plus) memory clinic. Objective: To characterize by comparing it with normal control (NC), amnesic mild impairment (aMCI), Alzheimer Disease (AD) regarding their demographics, lifestyle, family history dementia, multimorbidity assessments. Methods: A total 135 participants were recruited, including 23...
Background Care personalization is key to the well-being of people with dementia according person-centered care. With development internet things, a large quantity personal data can be collected securely and reliably, which has potential facilitate care for dementia. Yet, there are limited assistive technologies developed this purpose, user acceptance low in nursing homes. Therefore, through data-enabled design approach, digital platform was helping team home personalize care, specifically...
Personalisation is a crucial element in providing person-centred care for people with dementia. This paper presents the development and evaluation of design toolkit to facilitate work designers healthcare professionals personalising dementia care. toolkit, named “Know-me”, was grounded findings Ergonomics Aging, Co-design, Data-enabled Design, derived from literature review field during four-year doctorate project. “Know-me” designed be easily accessible, flexible, engaging, concrete...
It is increasingly recognized that community-based interventions for active ageing are more lasting and effective, yet the tools methods developing these lacking. This study investigates how to co-design with older adults via development of a toolkit support this goal. Rapid reviews were conducted understand (i) effective behavioural change techniques adults, (ii) interventions, (iii) design behaviour easy use. These served as foundation ageing, which was evaluated during an...
Researchers have been exploring how to manage Behavioural and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia (BPSD) in a personalised way, meanwhile, assistive technologies developed collect variety personal data. This urges more research investigating the combination of: data collected by care team, which are mainly qualitative; technologies, majority quantitative. Previous studies, however, yet explore if quantitative qualitative could facilitate team better understand each resident with dementia...
To facilitate the adoption of community-based practices for active ageing, it is important to design these together with a wide range older adults from community via an interdisciplinary perspective. Hackathons, originally developed by programmers, have been adapted different disciplines and started include users stakeholders. Not only hackathons found generate tangible outcomes such as concepts but also intangible ones positive experiences. We aim investigate how conduct intergenerational...
