About
Qiu He is a leading researcher in gerontechnology, with a focused expertise on the acceptance and adoption of socially assistive robots (SARs) among older adults. Her work critically addresses the gap between technological capability and real-world usability for aging populations. In her landmark 2022 scoping review, she systematically mapped the models, measurements, and key influencing factors of technology acceptance for SARs, providing a foundational framework that has garnered 33 citations. He has been instrumental in bringing validated, cross-cultural measurement tools to the field, notably through the translation and psychometric testing of the Almere Technology Acceptance Questionnaire (ATAQ) for use in China—a first-of-its-kind adaptation that enables robust, localized research. Her 2023 study on community-dwelling older adults in China further quantifies the specific social and psychological drivers of robot acceptance in a non-Western context. By bridging Western theoretical models with empirical data from China, Qiu He’s work is pivotal for designing culturally sensitive, user-centered robotic interventions that can truly support independent living for the world’s rapidly aging societies.
