Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to investigate differences in perception of barriers and facilitators of digitalization and Artificial Intelligence (AI) usage in healthcare across different generational groups (youth, working-age adults, and seniors). The results will help create practical recommendations for public health projects and consultants to support fair and inclusive use of new digital tools in healthcare. A cross-sectional online survey will be conducted among students at HAW, patients and employees in the rehabilitation center in Oldenburg, and seniors participating in the "Digital im Alter"(DIA) project.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will use an online questionnaire to collect data from respondents about their attitudes toward digital technologies and artificial intelligence in healthcare, as well as their opinions about barriers and facilitators for the equal adoption of modern technologies. The survey will be conducted in November to December 2025.

The survey will use validated scales, including the eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS) and the Human-Computer Trust Scale (HCTS), combined with additional items assessing perceived barriers and facilitators. Open-ended questions will allow participants to express their views on barriers and facilitators in their own words and from their perspective.
