Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the intention to use of information and communication technology(ICT) for the elderly residing in community based on the theory of planned behavior. The subjects were 99 elderly aged 60 or older living in G and S cities from January 1 to 31 in 2020 using questionnaire. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 program for descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, multiple regression. As a result, the mean of the attitude to use of ICT for the elderly was 3.79±0.74, subjective norm was 3.43±0.66, perceived behavioral control was 3.12±0.71, behavior intention was 3.23±0.77. The intent to use of ICT for the elderly are subjective norm(β=.35, p<.001), perceived behavior control(β=.35, p<.001), had an explanatory power of 48.7%. Therefore, it is necessary that systematic program considering the above factors for elderly residing in community to promote the intent to use of ICT.

본 연구는 계획된 행위이론을 기반으로 지역사회 거주 노인의 정보통신 테크놀로지 사용 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위한 조사연구이다. 자료 수집은 G시와 S시에 거주하는 60세 이상 노인 99명을 대상으로 2020년 1월 한달 동안 설문조사를 실시하였으며, SPSS 23.0 프로그램을 활용하여 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 지역사회 노인의 정보통신 테크놀로지 사용에 대한 태도는 3.79±0.74점, 주관적 규범은 3.43±0.66점, 지각된 행위통제는 3.12±0.71점, 사용의도는 3.23±0.77점이였다. 지역사회 노인의 정보통신 테크놀로지 사용 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 주관적 규범(β=.35, p<.001), 지각된 행위 통제(β=.35, p<.001)였으며, 이들 변수의 설명력은 48.7%였다. 따라서 지역사회 노인의 정보통신 테크놀로지 사용 의도를 촉진하기 위해서는 위의 변수를 고려한 체계적인 방안 마련이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
