Population aging is a global issue, and Taiwan has been classified as an aging society since 2017, with older adults accounting for over 14% of the total population. Projections indicate that by 2026, Taiwan will enter a super-aging society, with older adults comprising over 20% of the population. This imminent transition into a super-aging society presents Taiwan with a more pressing challenge concerning aging compared to many other countries. The aging population brings forth issues related to the labor force, an economic shift towards an older demographic, and the need for long-term care, particularly for those with disabilities and cognitive impairments, offering trends and business opportunities in the application of technology to the needs of the aging population. Previous data show that the aging population experiences various physiological and psychological effects related to aging, leading to several age-related health issues. Social support has been identified as an effective means to help older adults adapt to the changes associated with aging. Moreover, technological advancements have introduced various smart technologies, including chatbots, avatars, virtual agents, and artificial intelligence, for potential use by the aging population to address aging-related challenges, emphasizing the importance of gerontechnology in developing technology solutions for older adults. This research aims to address the design challenges encountered in practice and focuses on enhancing the user experience for middle-aged, older, and elderly individuals in caregiving contexts. The primary motivation is to create products with low barriers, user-friendliness, and the ability to stimulate the self-motivation of middle-aged, older, and elderly users. The study centers on middle-aged and older users, employing six types of avatars representing different sources of social support: 1. Family Role - Brother Type, 2. Family Role - Sister Type, 3. Friend Role - Male Friend Type, 4. Friend Role - Female Friend Type, 5. Professional Role - Male Doctor Type, and 6. Professional Role - Female Doctor Type. The research investigates the common design preferences of middle-aged and older users for different avatar types, their preferred interaction topics, and the types of social support that different avatar types provide. This study is intended to serve as a foundational step for future developments in gerontechnology design, such as caregiving robots, and to enhance the user experience for middle-aged, older, and elderly populations while effectively addressing aging-related challenges through technology solutions.

520 $a 人口老化乃全球性重要議題，台灣自 2017 年已成為老年人口佔全國人數 14%以上的高齡社會；推估在 2026 年將邁入老年人口佔全國人數 20%以上的超高齡社會，台灣面臨超高齡社會的來臨僅剩 3 年，面對老化議題將比其他各國更為急迫。而人口老化衍生之勞動力、經濟主力偏往高齡化及失能失智等長期照顧之議題，則提供科技應用高齡族群需求之趨勢及商機。過往資料顯示，高齡族群在生理與心理皆受到老化的影響，進而衍生許多老化不適應症狀，而提供社會支持可有效協助高齡族群適應老化所帶來的改變。又科技進展至今，許多科技技術包括聊天機器人（Chatbot）、虛擬化身及虛擬代理（Avatar＆ Virtual agents）、人工智慧（Artificial intelligence）等智慧科技如何更好的應用於高齡族群，提供老化議題的科技解方，有效發展老人福祉科技（Gerontechnology），則相當重要。本研究者根據實務開發經驗所碰上之設計痛點，即如何提升照護場域中較為常見之中高齡及高齡族群之科技使用者經驗，建構低門檻、高友善、促發中高齡及高齡者自主使用動機等的產品為研究動機，將以中高齡使用者做為研究對象，以 6 種社會支持來源角色類型之虛擬化身（Avatar），分別為：1.家人角色－兄弟類型、2.家人角色－姊妹類型、3.朋友角色－男性友人類型、4.朋友角色－女性友人類型、5.專業人士角色－男醫師類型、6.專業人士角色－女醫師類型；探討研究對象對不同角色類型虛擬化身的共通喜好設計、偏好之互動主題、及各角色類型虛擬化身設計可提供研究對象何種社會支持類型之半結構式訪談。將探討 1.中高齡使用者對不同角色類型的虛擬化身共通喜好設計。2.中高齡使用者在面對不同角色類型的虛擬化身時，互動主題之偏好。3. 中高齡使用者面對不同角色類型的虛擬化身，想獲得的社會支持類型。以供未來發展老人福祉科技設計之基石（如照護機器人等），提升中高齡及高齡族群之科技使用者經驗，有效發展面對老化議題之科技解方。.
