Abstract
This study investigates attitudes toward and adoption of technology to support active and healthy aging across three generations in Sweden (30–39, 50–59, and 70–79-year-olds). A national survey (n=2,121) revealed shared attitudes and acceptance of technologies, but preferences and reasons for use varied by generation. Findings inform the development and implementation of age-appropriate technologies.
