Exploring a Gap in Informed & Self-Aware Aging: A Perspective from Embodied Information Science

Abstract

A plethora of information is available regarding healthy aging lifestyle choices and how to adapt to lifestyle changes that are associated with aging. Preliminary literature review findings suggest that there is a gap in the informational landscape regarding information services that can help older adults understand, on their own, where they are on their highly individualized life’s journey; these services would include information on how to navigate challenges regarding maintaining an independent lifestyle and potentially losing the ability to make informed decisions.
