大规模紧急情况日益对人的生命构成重大威胁，老年人承受的负担不成比例。研究探讨了移动的技术如何能够减轻大规模紧急情况的影响。然而，较少的工作研究了移动的技术如何在紧急情况下支持老年人，考虑到他们的独特需求。为了解决这一研究空白，我们采访了16名最近有紧急疏散经验的老年人，以了解在紧急情况下使用移动的技术的感知价值。我们发现，人们对现有的危机应用缺乏认识和参与。我们的研究结果的特点，我们的参与者没有和没有感到危机信息学工具解决人类价值观，包括基本需求和尊重的需要。我们有助于了解老年人如何在紧急情况下使用移动的技术，以及他们对这些工具如何解决人类价值观的看法。
Mass emergencies increasingly pose significant threats to human life, with a disproportionate burden being incurred by older adults. Research has explored how mobile technology can mitigate the effects of mass emergencies. However, less work has examined how mobile technologies support older adults during emergencies, considering their unique needs. To address this research gap, we interviewed 16 older adults who had recent experience with an emergency evacuation to understand the perceived value of using mobile technology during emergencies. We found that there was a lack of awareness and engagement with existing crisis apps. Our findings characterize the ways in which our participants did and did not feel crisis informatics tools address human values, including basic needs and esteem needs. We contribute an understanding of how older adults used mobile technology during emergencies and their perspectives on how well such tools address human values.
