Abstract

For elderly society, the "kodokushi" is a trigger that elderly have a few connections with others. Creating a direct way to have social connection might a way to solve this problem. This study focusses on encouraging elderly egress and what the factors are. This behavior pattern model is using design to provide 5 factors: (1) Information; (2) Personal Factor; (3) Constraint; (4) Willing to egress; (5) Action, and it contains 4 patterns. In order to clarify the validity of these models and the possibility of design support in behavioral patterns, we will conduct a questionnaire survey on the elderly and conduct verification experiments considering differences in user demographics.
