Project Summary The landscape of aging and technology has changed dramatically. Uptake of technology is increasing among aging adults; more researchers are focusing on this topic (many of whom are CREATE progeny); technology is increasingly being considered as a solution for the support needs of aging adults; and more technology products are marketed to seniors. These trends underscore the continued significance of the Center for Research and Education on Aging and Technology Enhancement (CREATE). Deployment of technology in healthcare and day-to-day activities is increasing and advances in technology such as artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly aimed at supporting older adults. Yet, aging adults are often ignored in design, and robust research evaluating the usability, safety, and efficacy of these systems with older adults is limited. Even among older technology adopters, rapid changes in technology pose challenges in terms of the constant need for adaptation and continual learning. Further, there remains a lag in uptake among many older adult sub-groups, including ethnic minorities, older cohorts, those of lower socio-economic status, those living in a rural location, or with a cognitive impairment such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer's Disease/Alzheimer's Disease Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). This application is a request for continued support for CREATE, an established multidisciplinary, cohesive, highly productive, and innovative Center that focuses on aging adults and technology interactions. CREATE’s goal is to ensure that older adults are able to use and realize the benefits of technology. CREATE V has a new vision, expanded research program and teams, and target populations, such as those with MCI, expanded technical expertise, and access to an array of resources, community and clinical partners. Given that age is a significant risk factor for cognitive impairments such as MCI and AD/ADRD, and the criticality of cognition to everyday functioning, a thrust of our planned research is on using emerging technologies to help maintain cognitive health and provide support for those with cognitive impairments. Our Research Program includes three highly integrated cross-site projects focused on: 1) enhancing cognitive health and cognitive and social engagement and preventing cognitive impairment; 2) providing support for adults with MCI and using innovative techniques to assess further cognitive decline such as conversion to AD/ADRD; and 3) providing cognitive support for health-management activities for those with and without cognitive impairments. Our cross- site approach allows us to examine heterogeneity in response to our promising interventions. Our Program will also include an expanded Pilot Research Program to support new research and investigators. CREATE will involve three main sites: Weill Cornell Medicine, Florida State U. and the U. of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. J. Sharit will remain as a Co-Leader (U. of Miami). We will also draw on faculty support from other campuses and institutions. The Center will include Administrative, Data and Technical Development, and Dissemination Cores, External Scientific and Community Advisory Boards, and an Industry Advisory Council.

项目摘要 老龄化和技术的前景已经发生了巨大的变化。技术的吸收正在增加， 老年人;更多的研究人员正在关注这个话题（其中许多人是CREATE后代）;技术是 越来越多地被视为满足老年人支持需求的解决方案;以及更多的技术产品 是针对老年人的。这些趋势强调了研究中心的持续重要性， 老龄化和技术增强教育（CREATE）。在医疗保健领域部署技术， 日常活动越来越多，人工智能（AI）等技术的进步也越来越多， 旨在支持老年人。然而，老年人在设计中往往被忽视， 这些系统对老年人的可用性、安全性和有效性是有限的。即使在旧技术中 技术的迅速变化带来了不断需要适应的挑战， 不断学习。此外，许多老年人亚群体，包括少数民族， 少数民族、老年人、社会经济地位较低的人、生活在农村地区的人或有认知障碍的人。 损害，如轻度认知损害（MCI）或阿尔茨海默病/阿尔茨海默病相关 痴呆（AD/ADRD）。此应用程序是对CREATE的持续支持的请求， 多学科，凝聚力，高生产力和创新中心，专注于老年人和技术 交互. CREATE的目标是确保老年人能够使用和实现技术的好处。 CREATE V有一个新的愿景，扩大了研究计划和团队，目标人群，如 通过MCI，扩展技术专业知识，并获得一系列资源，社区和临床合作伙伴。 鉴于年龄是认知障碍（如MCI和AD/ADRD）的重要风险因素， 我们计划研究的一个重点是利用新兴技术来帮助 保持认知健康，并为有认知障碍的人提供支持。我们的研究项目 包括三个高度集成的跨站点项目，重点是：1）增强认知健康和认知能力， 社会参与和预防认知障碍; 2）为MCI成年人提供支持， 评估进一步认知下降的创新技术，如转换为AD/ADRD;和3）提供 为有和没有认知障碍的人提供健康管理活动的认知支持。我们的十字架- 站点方法允许我们检查异质性，以响应我们有希望的干预措施。我们的计划将 还包括一个扩大的试点研究计划，以支持新的研究和调查。创造意志 涉及三个主要站点：威尔康奈尔医学，佛罗里达州立大学。和联合伊利诺伊州厄巴纳-香槟市。J. 沙利特将继续担任联合领导人。（迈阿密）。我们还将利用其他校区的教师支持， 机构职能体系该中心将包括行政、数据和技术开发以及传播核心， 外部科学和社区咨询委员会，以及行业咨询理事会。
