Research on Age-Friendly Design Practice for Smart Tourism Based on Grounded Theory:A Case Study of the'Elderly Travel Journal'Mobile Application
To address the difficulties elderly individuals face in using travel software,this study utilizes age-friendly smart design to help seniors better integrate into the information age.A survey of 187 elderly travel enthusiasts was conducted,with a stratified sample of 50 individuals aged between 60 and 65.Based on the survey results,grounded theory was employed to construct a theoretical model and identify factors influencing elderly users'difficulties with travel software.Five design dimensions for age-friendly smart tourism mobile applications were summarized from measurable and latent variables:interface design,functional hierarchy design,memory module design,interaction method design,and tourism social module design.These design elements cater to the physiological and psychological changes of the elderly,providing a more comfortable,convenient,and safe travel experience.They also serve as a reference for the improvement of future age-friendly smart tourism mobile applications.
