简要总结
This is an initial usability assessment of a vehicle Seat Transfer device, the Safer Seat. The study will involve target end users (individuals with mobility impairments) trialing the Safer Seat and providing feedback via the Technology Acceptance Model Survey's Modified from Davis (1985) and brief qualitative interview.
详细描述
This study investigates the initial usability of the Safer Seat vehicle transfer aid. Participants with impaired mobility, strength, or balance are being asked to transfer onto and off of a vehicle seat with and without the device to trial its usability. In addition, transfers are doing rated by a licensed occupational therapist according to the Physical Mobility Scale to determine if independence level is affected. Usability evaluation is being done both qualitatively and quantitatively using Technology Assessment Surveys and a semi-structured interview. Insight gained through this initial trial will be used to refine the design of the Safer Seat.
