Abstract

To better understand how older adults use health visualizations and the potential barriers that impact utility, we conducted semistructured interviews with 21 older adults. Within these sessions, we presented participants with two interactive visualizations for exploration. Through an affinity mapping exercise, we extracted five key themes associated with how older adults utilize health visualizations and provide corresponding recommendations as points of consideration for designers developing older adult focused health visualizations. By examining how older adults perceive the utility of health visualizations, we lay the groundwork for design choices that impact eventual use and adoption of systems that generate data for such visualizations.
