The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained significant attention due to advancements in technology and has potential applications in meeting the needs of an aging population. Smart technologies, a subset of IoT, can support older adults in aging in place, promoting independent living and improving their quality of life. However, there is a lack of research on how older adults and smart technologies coadapt over time to maximize their benefits and sustain adoption.
We will aim to comprehensively review and analyze the existing scientific literature pertaining to the coadaptation between smart technologies and older adults. The primary focus will be to investigate the extent and nature of this coadaptation process and explore how older adults and technology coevolve over time to enhance older adults' experience with technology.
This scoping review will follow the methodology outlined in the Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewer's Manual and adhere to the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines for reporting. Peer-reviewed articles will be searched in databases like Ovid MEDLINE, OVID Embase, PEDro, OVID PsycINFO, EBSCO CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, Web of Science, and Global Index Medicus. The research team will create a data extraction form covering study characteristics, participant characteristics, underlying models and frameworks, research findings, implications for technology coadaptation, and any identified study limitations. A directed content analysis approach will be used, incorporating the Selection, Optimization, and Compensation framework and Sex- and Gender-Based Analysis Plus theoretical framework.
The results of this study are expected in January 2024.
This scoping review endeavors to present a thorough overview of the available evidence concerning how smart technologies interact with older adults over an extended period. The insights gained from this review will lay the groundwork for a research program that explores how older adults adapt to and use smart technologies throughout their lives, ultimately leading to improved user satisfaction and experience and facilitating aging in place with tailored support and user-centered design principles.

由于技术进步，物联网（IoT）已受到广泛关注，并在满足老龄人口需求方面具有潜在应用。智能技术作为物联网的一个子集，可以支持老年人居家养老，促进独立生活并提高他们的生活质量。然而，关于老年人与智能技术如何随着时间推移共同适应以最大化其益处并维持采用率，目前缺乏相关研究。
我们旨在全面回顾和分析与智能技术和老年人之间共同适应相关的现有科学文献。主要重点将是调查这一共同适应过程的程度和性质，并探索老年人与技术如何随着时间共同进化以增强老年人的技术体验。
本范围综述将遵循乔安娜·布里格斯研究所评审手册中概述的方法，并遵循PRISMA-ScR（系统评价和元分析扩展的范围综述首选报告项目）报告指南。将在Ovid MEDLINE、OVID Embase、PEDro、OVID PsycINFO、EBSCO CINAHL、Cochrane图书馆、Scopus、IEEE Xplore、科学引文索引和全球医学索引等数据库中搜索同行评审的文章。研究团队将创建一个数据提取表，涵盖研究特征、参与者特征、基础模型和框架、研究结果、对技术共同适应的影响以及任何已确定的研究局限性。将使用定向内容分析方法，纳入选择、优化和补偿框架以及基于性别的分析加理论框架。
本研究结果预计于2024年1月得出。
本范围综述致力于全面概述有关智能技术如何在较长时期内与老年人相互作用的现有证据。从本次综述中获得的见解将为一个研究项目奠定基础，该项目将探索老年人如何在其一生中适应和使用智能技术，最终提高用户满意度和体验，并通过量身定制的支持和以用户为中心的设计原则促进居家养老。
