The purpose of this study was to investigate elders’ preferences regarding a variety of commercially available medication reminder device types and reminding modes. The study also explored elders’ general medication management behavior. Findings suggest that elders’ medication reminder device preferences can be assessed via consideration of four general types of internal and external contextual factors: affective, cognitive, physical, and social factors. Preliminary study findings and design implications are discussed, along with plans for future analysis and research. 000000573 540__ $$fCC BY 000000573 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000573 650__ $$aAged$$014351 000000573 650__ $$aPatient Compliance$$023664 000000573 650__ $$aReminder Systems$$029614 000000573 650__ $$aMedication Therapy Management$$037901 000000573 650__ $$aAged, 80 and over$$014352 000000573 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000573 692__ $$aDepartment of Medical Informatics and Clinical Epidemiology$$041422 000000573 7001_ $$aAbrahamson, Jennie$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000573 7201_ $$aJimison, Holly$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000000573 8564_ $$94fb7458f-6e8c-4a74-85d1-e26b4aaefc24$$s237224$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/573/files/574_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2dbbbfffef566ed36c5f3bfa8530c906a$$31 000000573 901__ $$a<p>These documents are archival records.
