Assisted Aging: The Future Confluence of Gerontology, Internet of Things and Psychological AI

Journal Title: İzmir Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

In this article, we propose a new term, ‘assisted aging’ which is an offshoot of the discussions on assisted living of aging populations. The article consists of 5 major sections: In the first section after introduction, we review mostly technical accounts of health applications of IoT. In the second section, we introduce mostly social science-oriented research on health applications of IoT. In the third section, we present and discuss gerontological research on IoT. In the fourth section, we focus on yet another relatively new term which is ‘psychological AI’. We show how this will be central to future IoT for gerontological purposes. Finally, we reflect on assisted living studies to develop our notion of assisted aging.
