E-VITA study protocol: EU-Japan virtual coach for smart aging.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The aim of this study is to report a trial protocol for assessing the improvement of older adults' well-being, promoting active and healthy aging, and reducing the risks of social exclusion, using a virtual coach.

Background

Increased longevity brings with it reduced autonomy and independence, and it is therefore necessary to act with preventive measures that can promote active and healthy aging. With the development of technology, new tools have appeared, including virtual coaches, which can enable people to lead a healthy lifestyle by identifying individual needs and goals and providing personalized recommendations and advice. However, it is important that these coaches take into consideration the inter-individual and cross-cultural differences of each person.
