The Effect of Emotional Intelligence Applications on the Lifestyle of the Elderly

Abstract

Today, many changes have been seen in the life of people in society with the development of new technologies. For example, developing various new communication platforms and applications such as social networks has been able to affect the lifestyle and communication of people in different age groups. The elderly are one of the most important sections of society, and other age groups have been affected by new applications and social networks in recent years. One of the important issues that should be considered for the elderly people is to provide a suitable environment to improve their quality of life because they are one of the most vulnerable groups in society who, due to old age and various diseases, don't have this power to do their daily routine, and this affects their moods. So, designing new intelligence applications for improving their emotional intelligence can play an important role to facilitate their work and communications. In this chapter, the authors discuss new artificial intelligence applications that can control the emotional intelligence of the elderly.
