Outline of Final Research Achievements

The olde people living alone who preferred to be alone (preference of solitude) felt more loneliness. High preference of solitude was also associated with male, lower age, and social isolation. The results suggest that an approach that provides many opportunities for older people with a strong sense of loneliness and high preference of solitude to participate in activities alone without anxiety is needed.
Physical activity increased as a result of attempts at social interaction with tablets. One of the strengths of tablet use is that there is no time limit, and the ability to interact regardless of external factors such as weather, which is likely to lead to continuity of interaction. However, there is a need to consider the characteristics of the elderly, who have a low affinity for ICT and may have physical difficulties operating it.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ひとりを好む傾向のある独自志向性が高い高齢者が存在し、確信的に社会的孤立状態を生じさせていると考えられた。しかし、その状況下であっても高い孤独感やIADLの低下、介護や日常生活などのフォーマル・インフォーマルサポートが少ない状況が確認された。一方で、ICTタブレットを使用した交流は高齢者の活動量を増加させる結果も得られた。以上のことから、新たな感染症の発言も鑑み、ICTやオンラインを利用した社会的孤立予防のため高齢者へのアプローチの在り方が提言できると考えられる。
