dc.description.abstractThis study investigates how older adults' attitude patterns affect assistive devices' (AD) use in a small-household context of Singapore. Community older adults with physical limitations (n=481) completed face-to-face interviews for 90min. Latent Profile Analysis analysed multiple indicators of attitudes towards ADs. Three groups were classified: positive attitude group (PAG); negative attitude group (NAG); and unwillingness to pay for ADs (UPG). PAG was most likely to use ADs, while UPG was least likely to use ADs. The findings are expected to help older adults age in place by improving equal distribution of technology resources that assist with daily tasks and activities.-
