Abstract: | Mobile technology plays an increasing role in interpersonal communication,
representing a useful resource for different age cohorts. While the usage of
mobile communication by younger people has received a wide attention from
communication scholars, its usage by older people is less explored. The
goal of our research project is to analyse the usage of mobile phones by the
elderly in Italy. We conducted 51 semi-structured interviews in Rome and in a
mid-range town located in Umbria, between October 2013 and February 2014.
Our study explores older users¿ motivations and usage practices, their perceptions of mobile phones, their
adoption and domestication of mobile phones, their usage skills. More specifically,
our analysis focuses on: - personal characteristics - personal networks (personal
network composition, self-perceived social life, communication channels) -
adoption of mobile telephone - consumption patterns of mobile devices - used
mobile services - location and mobility of mobile telephone - current mobile
characteristics - attitude and opinions towards mobile technology Our preliminary
results show major differences in users¿ behaviours and perceptions, that can
be related to age cohorts (younger olds vs older olds); socio-cultural levels;
vital trajectories (in terms of professional and familiar status); and gender. |
