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.
