Family Caregivers’ Acceptance of Using Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Technology in the Care of Older Adults
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled technology might aid family caregivers (FCGs) in providing older adult care.The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was developed to understand technology acceptance, but no studies applying it have focused on Canadian FCGs' acceptance of AI.Aim: This study sought to examine middle-aged Quebec FCGs' behavioural intention (BI) to use AI-enabled technology for older adult care, and to assess the predictive capability of candidate predictor variables.Method: This was a cross-sectional online survey using an extended UTAUT model and fivepoint scales measured BI and nine predictor variables: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, technology anxiety, perceived trust, perceived cost, confidence in the source of advice for care (healthcare professional vs AI-enabled technology) and confidence in healthcare professionals' advice for the use of AI-enabled technology.5 1b Provide an informative summary in the abstract, covering background, objectives, methods, findings/results, interpretation/discussion, and conclusions.5-9

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
