Analysing the Association Between User Perceptions and Usage Patterns of Digital Personalised Care Platforms Using the UTAUT Framework: Insights from the ADLIFE Project

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2025 Jun 26:328:469-473. doi: 10.3233/SHTI250763.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between user perceptions, as measured by the extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model, and actual usage patterns of the ADLIFE Digital Personalized Care Platform. Data were collected from healthcare professionals and patients/informal caregivers across multiple pilot sites. Significant correlations were found between usability factors, technology anxiety, performance expectancy, and platform usage metrics, underscoring the importance of user-centred design and support systems. These findings offer actionable insights for optimising digital health platforms to enhance user engagement and adoption.
