Question 29

Investigation into Older Adults' Attitudes towards Wearable Fitness Trackers

How do older adults (aged 65 and over) perceive the usefulness of wearable fitness trackers, and what factors influence their willingness to adopt this technology? Are there specific anxieties or motivations that shape their decisions? To investigate these attitudes, researchers often rely on directly asking individuals about their beliefs and actions using self-report methods.

Explain how you would use the self-report method to investigate older adults' attitudes towards using wearable fitness trackers.

You must refer to:

  • the use of a structured interview
  • one question that uses a semantic differential rating scale
  • one question that would produce nominal data

You should use your own experience of practical activities to inform your response.
