Expectations and Sensemaking : Older People and Care Robots

Frennert, Susanne LU orcid (2020) 6th International Conference on Human Aspects of IT for the Aged Population, ITAP 2020, held as part of the 22nd International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2020 In Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics) 12209 LNCS. p.191-206
Abstract

We do not yet know how the robotization of eldercare will unfold, but one thing is clear: technology mediates human practices and experiences [1]. As such, care robots will co-shape the actions of care givers and older people and influence the perceptions and experiences of old age. The robotization of eldercare means that it is essential for developers, policy makers, and researchers to become increasingly aware of the intertwined and implicit expectations that older people impose on care robots. This paper both zooms in towards older people’s individual expectations and zooms out towards expectation configurations at a group level and the expectation imagery of care robots in future eldercare.
