Perceptions of heat and air pollution among older adults experiencing homelessness in Phoenix, Arizona (USA) (June 2024)

This dataset consists of survey responses from 40 older adults experiencing homelessness in Phoenix, Arizona (USA), assessing the perceptions of environmental hazards—specifically heat and air pollution—and attitudes toward coping resources and behaviors. The survey includes 51 questions co-created with community members across five categories: demographics and behavior, movement/transportation, climate perceptions, resource availability, and local knowledge mapping. Surveys were conducted indoors at a local service provider over two days in June 2024, when outdoor temperatures reached 42 degrees C and 45 degrees C. The dataset offers insights into potential public service reforms to mitigate heat and air pollution risks among Arizona’s unhoused population. The survey was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Arizona State University (IRB approval number: STUDY00018399).

Evaluation Tools for Human-AI Interactions Involving Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairments

<h1>Abstract</h1> <p>As artificial intelligence (AI) systems have already proven useful in human lives generally, there is an opportunity for specialized human-AI interaction (HAI) systems to support and provide care for older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, the integration of this technology in this population must be thoughtfully designed to accommodate specific needs and limitations. This includes careful measurement of both humans and systems. We developed an evolving dataset categorizing relevant measurement tools into five groups: cognitive ability, demographics &amp; personality, activity level, state of mind, and perceptions of the AI system. Each instance of the tool being used in the literature cataloged in the dataset is qualified in terms of how likely we would recommend using it in the domain of HAI for older adults with MCI based on contextual factors and internal reliability measures. This dataset will serve as a valuable resource for future research, aiding in the identification of promising areas and trends in AI systems for older adults with MCI as well as providing essential tools for future studies.</p> <h1>Methodology</h1> <p>This dataset was not derived through a typical literature review or survey process, but rather followed a more flexible research method. To collect resources for the dataset, we searched numerous databases to identify studies and review types of publications in journals and conferences between the dates of 2000 to 2022. For the papers that contained extensive reviews of literature or cited original tools, we would further look into the citations of those papers, taking us beyond our limited date range. The tools used were categorized into five groups to broadly distinguish their usage in a study, measuring:</p> <ol> <li>Cognitive ability</li> <li>Demographics, personality, and experiences</li> <li>Activity level</li> <li>State of mind</li> <li>Perceptions of the AI system</li> </ol> <p>Subsequently, we conducted an examination of their Cronbach&rsquo;s 𝛼 scores to assess internal reliability. We created tiers based on how likely we would be to recommend using each tool in the domain of human-AI (HAI) with older adults with MCI, as follows:</p> <ul> <li>Tier 1 included tools with Cronbach&rsquo;s 𝛼 &ge; 0.7 when used with older adults with MCI in experimental settings interacting with AI</li> <li>Tier 2 included tools with Cronbach&rsquo;s 𝛼 &ge; 0.7 when used with older adults, with or without MCI, in experimental settings with or without AI interaction</li> <li>Tier * included tools that satisfy the criteria for Tier 1, but, to the best of our knowledge, lack reported Cronbach&rsquo;s 𝛼 scores</li> <li>Tier 3 included all remaining tools that do not meet the criteria for Tier 1, 2, or *</li> </ul> <p>It should be emphasized that a tool may be found in one or more tiers because multiple studies used the same tool yet resulted in varying reliability scores, contexts, etc.</p> <h1>Contribute</h1> <p>Readers are encouraged to reach out to Adam Norton (adam[underscore]norton[at]uml.edu) to recommend additional tools and entries to the dataset.</p> <h1>Publication</h1> <p>This dataset is published as a short contribution to the Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) 2024 conference.

The prevalence and correlates of depression and anxiety symptoms among older adults in Shenzhen, China

<p><strong>Objectives: </strong>To investigate the prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms among older adults in an urban district in China, as well as their associated factors.</p> <p><strong>Participants:</strong> A total of 5,372 community-dwelling older adults aged 65 years or older were initially recruited. Ultimately, 5,331 participants met the inclusion criteria and were included in this study.</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> Participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire, along with assessments including the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Generalized Anxiety Scale-7, UCLA Loneliness Simplification Scale, Insomnia Severity Index Scale, Community Dementia Brief Screening Scale, and the 8-item Dementia Screening Questionnaire. Statistical analyses included the Shapiro‒Wilk test, independent t-test, Wilcoxon rank test, c<sup>2</sup> test, and univariate and multivariate linear regression analysis.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> The prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms among older adults in Shenzhen communities was 10.4% and 11.3%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, age (B=-0.01, <em>P</em>&lt;0.05), relatively poor health status in the past year (B=1.00, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), poor health status in the past year (B=2.40, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), ISI score (B=0.21, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), AD8 score (B=0.22, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), ULS score (B=0.24, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01) were significantly associated with the severity of depression symptom, Compared to their respective reference categories, relatively poor health status in the past year (B=0.50, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), poor health status in the past year (B=1.32, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), ISI score (B=0.23, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), sleep duration (B=0.05, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), AD8 score (B=0.21, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), CSID score (B=0.13, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01), ULS score (B=0.22, <em>P</em>&lt;0.01) were significantly associated with the severity of anxiety symptom.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>We observed a high prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms among older adults in this study. The existing welfare system and infrastructure should remain and targeted mental health programs addressing the identified risk factors should be proposed.</p>

Sex-specific tuning of modular muscle activation patterns for locomotion in young and older adults

<p>There is increasing evidence that including sex as a biological variable is of crucial importance to promote rigorous, repeatable and reproducible science. In spite of this, the body of literature that accounts for the sex of participants in human locomotion studies is small and often produces controversial results. Here, we investigated the modular organization of muscle activation patterns for human locomotion using the concept of muscle synergies with a double purpose: i) uncover possible sex-specific characteristics of motor control and ii) assess whether these are maintained in older age. We recorded electromyographic activities from 13 ipsilateral muscles of the lower limb in young and older adults of both sexes walking (young and old) and running (young) on a treadmill. The data set obtained from the 215 participants was elaborated through non-negative matrix factorization to extract the time-independent (i.e., motor modules) and time-dependent (i.e., motor primitives) coefficients of muscle synergies. We found sparse sex-specific modulations of motor control. Motor modules showed a different contribution of hip extensors, knee extensors and foot dorsiflexors in various synergies. Motor primitives were wider (i.e., lasted longer) in males in the propulsion synergy for walking (but only in young and not in older adults) and in the weight acceptance synergy for running. Moreover, the complexity of motor primitives was similar in younger adults of both sexes, but lower in older females as compared to older males. In essence, our results revealed the existence of small but defined sex-specific differences in the way humans control locomotion and that these strategies are not entirely maintained in older age.</p> <p>In this&nbsp;supplementary data set we made available: a) the metadata with anonymized participant information; b) the raw EMG, already concatenated for the overground trials; c) the touchdown and lift-off timings of the recorded limb, d) the code to process the data. In total, 520 trials from 215&nbsp;participants are included in the supplementary data set.</p> <p>The file &ldquo;metadata.dat&rdquo; is available in ASCII format and contains:</p> <ul> <li>Code: the participant&rsquo;s code</li> <li>Group: the participant&#39;s group (G1=young adults, walking; G2=old adults, walking; G3=young adults, running)</li> <li>Sex: the participant&rsquo;s sex (M or F)</li> <li>Locomotion: the type of locomotion (walking or running)</li> <li>Speed: the speed at which the recordings were conducted in [m/s]</li> <li>Speed_type: the distinction between fixed (decided by the researchers) or preferred (selected by the participant) speed</li> <li>Age: the participant&rsquo;s age in years</li> <li>Height: the participant&rsquo;s height in [cm]</li> <li>Mass: the participant&rsquo;s body mass in [kg].</li> </ul> <p>The &quot;RAW_DATA.RData&quot;&nbsp;R list consists of elements of S3 class &quot;EMG&quot;, each of which is a human locomotion trial containing cycle segmentation timings and raw electromyographic (EMG) data from 13 muscles of the right-side leg.

The running time varies based on CPU characteristics, but a runtime of at least 2 hours should be expected to generate all the output data, figures, and tables. All output files are saved in the working directory.</p> <p>___</p> <p>This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.</p> <div> <div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div> <div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>

Technology use characteristics among older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-cultural survey - DATASET

<p>Data to support the findings included in the Journal paper</p> <p>Elimelech, O. C., Ferrante, S., Josman, N., Meyer, S., Lunardini, F., G&oacute;mez-Raja, J., ... &amp; Rosenblum, S. (2022). Technology use characteristics among older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-cultural survey.&nbsp;<em>Technology in Society</em>,&nbsp;<em>71</em>, 102080.</p> <p>These data were collected in the context of the ESSENCE project, and are aimed at understanding technology use characteristics among older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Indeed, the ESSENCE project aims at transforming the lessons learnt from the&nbsp;COVID-19<strong>&nbsp;</strong>in a huge opportunity that exploits technology toward a deep evolution of the services targeting vulnerable populations: non- or pre-frail seniors (targets of this study), and children of the first years of primary school. To contribute to the public health response in the context of the ongoing epidemic, and preparedness for future emergencies,&nbsp;ESSENCE&nbsp;aims at boosting the creation of a new model of home-based care that relies on stimulation, remote monitoring, tele-assistance, and connection between users, families, and professionals. Indeed, it was important to understand technology usage in the target population.</p> <p>Data were collected from Israel, Spain and France, in a multi-country design.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The .PDF file contains the questionnaire. For more details, refer to the journal paper linked to this dataset.</p> <p>The .SAV file is an SPSS file that contains the answers to the questionnaire and their encoding.</p>
