Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the factors affecting the intention of smart device internet usage from the perspective of lifelong learning of elderly people. Survey was conducted for understanding the factors affecting the internet usage intention of smart devices with 150 elderly people who visited the Gwangju Senior Technology Center (GSTC). The empirical results show that the perceived economic value and practical value of the elderly have a significant effect on the intention of utilizing the Internet of Smart Device. Although the moderating effect of the individual innovation of the elderly is not significant, Participation in social activities significantly moderated the relationship between perceived value and intention to use internet. In addition, the elderly expected that the quality of life would be improved via the use of smart devices.

최근 인구 고령화에 따라 고령자의 정보기통신기술 활용에 대한 논의가 증가하고 있으나 고령자들의 스마트 디바이스를 활용한 인터넷 이용은 여전히 타 세대와 격차가 있다. 본 연구는 고령자의 평생학습 관점에서 스마트 디바이스 인터넷 활용의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하는 것을 목표로 한다. 스마트기기의 인터넷 활용 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 광주 고령친화산업지원센터(GSTC)를 방문한 고령자 150명을 대상으로 설문조사 방식을 통해 분석하였다. 실증을 통해 고령자의 지각된 경제적 가치와 실용적 가치가 스마트 디바이스의 인터넷 활용의도에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 점을 밝혔으며, 고령자 개인 혁신성의 조절효과는 유의하지 않았지만, 사회활동 참여는 지각된 가치와 스마트 디바이스의 인터넷 활용의도 사이의 관계를 조절하였다. 또한 고령자는 스마트 디바이스의 인터넷 활용을 통해 삶의 질이 향상될 것이라고 기대하였다. 이 연구의 결과는 고령자를 대상으로 한 정부 및 지자체의 고령자 대상 정보통신기술 활용에 대한 지침과 고령자 평생학습 관점에서의 시사점을 제공할 것이다.
