| AGE-WELL 2016 Conference WP Plenary Sessions: WP8 Ethical, Social and Cultural Aspects of Technology (ETHICS-TECH)ETHICS-TECH is an interdisciplinary team of researchers committed to bringing ethical reflection to bear on technologies to help older Canadians to maintain their autonomy, health and social participation, and technologies used in the care and support of older adults. We are investigating factors that are most likely to contribute to disparities and ethical problems in the development, adoption and diffusion of emerging technologies. WP8 has struck an exciting balance between discovery and application-based research. Our projects both address important technology needs for older persons (e.g., safe and effective assistive device selection in WP8.1 and mobile applications for self-management of well-being in WP8.3) and simultaneously identify improvements in processes for research and developing technologies to make these processes more effective, efficient, and ethically responsible (e.g. seeking cost effective policy reforms that secure equity of availability of new and developing technologies in WP8.2). WP8 (ETHICS-TECH) has been exceptionally productive. We developed an ethics training program on researching innovative approaches to ethics training and implementing them within the Network. WP8 and WP5 (TECH-DD) are collaborating on a proposal to establish an innovation hub that engages the whole range of aging and technology stakeholders in the Ottawa region, committed to innovation and adoption of technology-based solutions and services. We are enriching the learning experiences of our trainees using a writing club, international trainee exchanges, and trainee-led webinars to develop leadership skills in knowledge translation and exchange. We received an SSHRC Insight Development Grant, “Perspectives on information and communication technology for daily activities and social inclusion among older Canadians with cognitive impairments and their caregivers”, and also an AGE-WELL SIP grant, “Responsible commercial translation of a an assistive devices decision support system to improve older adults’ autonomy”. 8.1 AT-SELECT, 8.2 ADT, 8.3 PRIV-SENSE University of Ottawa, Queen's University | Scientific Excellence - Leadership | 2016-10-19 | | | Ethical issues in information and communication technology adoption by aging persons with cognitive impairments and their caregivers: revisiting the Beauchamps and Childress’ Principles.Chalghoumi, H., Bikenback, J., Jutai, J. &Cobigo, V.
