未来，越来越多的老年人将被要求接受通过互联网提供的护理。例如，医疗保健专业人员可以通过远程护理提供治疗或支持。但老年人是否愿意使用这种所谓的电子健康应用程序呢？本研究的目的是深入了解老年人（即未来的老年人）使用电子医疗应用程序的意图。利用技术接受和使用统一理论 (UTAUT) 的要素，我们假设他们的意图与电子医疗将有所帮助的信念（绩效预期）、感知的易用性（努力预期）、重要他人的信念（社会影响力）以及有关互联网使用的自我效能有关。 1014 名年龄在 57 岁至 77 岁之间的人完成了一份预先设计的调查问卷（回应率为 67%）。使用嵌套线性回归分析来测试假设的关系。如果未来提供电子医疗应用程序，63.1%的受访者肯定或可能使用它。总体而言，受教育程度较低的人群使用电子医疗的意愿较低。大多数受访者认为电子医疗易于使用（60.8%）和易于学习（68.4%），这些项目构成了预期努力的量表。绩效预期量表中的项目普遍得分较低：45.8% 的人认为电子医疗有用，38.2% 的人认为它是一种愉快的互动方式。测试模型表明，预期绩效和努力与使用电子医疗的意愿高度相关。此外，自我效能感与使用意图相关，而社会影响力则无关。通过告知人们电子医疗的潜在好处并让他们练习该应用程序，可以提高对电子医疗的接受度。应特别关注受教育程度较低的人和以前没有使用过互联网的人。本文的在线版本 (doi:10.1186/s12913-015-0765-8) 包含补充材料，可供授权用户使用。
In the future, an increasing number of elderly people will be asked to accept care delivered through the Internet. For example, health-care professionals can provide treatment or support via telecare. But do elderly people intend to use such so-called e-Health applications? The objective of this study is to gain insight into the intention of older people, i.e. the elderly of the future, to use e-Health applications. Using elements of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), we hypothesized that their intention is related to the belief that e-Health will help (performance expectancy), the perceived ease of use (effort expectancy), the beliefs of important others (social influence), and the self-efficacy concerning Internet usage. A pre-structured questionnaire was completed by 1014 people aged between 57 and 77 (response 67%). The hypothesized relationships were tested using nested linear regression analyses. If offered an e-Health application in the future, 63.1% of the respondents would definitely or probably use it. In general, people with a lower level of education had less intention of using e-Health. The majority of respondents perceived e-Health as easy to use (60.8%) and easy to learn (68.4%), items that constitute the scale for effort expectancy. Items in the performance expectancy scale generally scored lower: 45.8% perceived e-Health as useful and 38.2% perceived it as a pleasant way to interact. The tested model showed that expected performance and effort were highly related to intention to use e-Health. In addition, self-efficacy was related to intention to use while social influence was not. Acceptance of e-Health can be increased by informing people about the potential benefits of e-Health and letting them practice with the application. Special attention should be paid to people with less education and people who have not used the Internet before.
