Abstract
The use of technologies in the home by older adults was examined. Data were obtained as part of two studies examining ADL performance in the elderly. Findings are presented which give a picture of technologies that older persons use and related variables. These data give an indication of where appropriately designed technology for the elderly might be applied.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
