We used a mixed methods research approach that included use logs, pre and post paper-based questionnaires, and focus groups. Forty-five client-caregiver pairs (dyads) were included to use one of the GPS devices for an average of 5.8 months over a 1-year period. GPS acceptance was high; dyads were likely to continue using the GPS. According to the participants, the GPS provided caregivers peace of mind and reduced anxiety in dyads when clients got lost. © 2017 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.application/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.1080/15228835.2016.12667241522899115228835https://repository.urosario.edu.co/handle/10336/22469engRoutledge119No. 299Journal of Technology in Human ServicesVol. 35Journal of Technology in Human Services, ISSN:15228991, 15228835, Vol.35, No.2 (2017); pp. 99-119https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85009827388&doi=10.1080%2f15228835.2016.1266724&partnerID=40&md5=8a24e1b4d6a741e7318d4ce558a4d9daAbierto (Texto Completo)http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2instname:Universidad del Rosarioreponame:Repositorio Institucional EdocURAlzheimer’s diseaseDementiaGlobal positioning systemTechnology acceptanceUTAUT modelAcceptance of Global Positioning System (GPS) Technology Among Dementia Clients and Family CaregiversarticleArtículohttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Liu L.Miguel Cruz A.Ruptash T.Barnard S.Juzwishin D.10336/22469oai:repository.urosario.edu.co:10336/224692022-05-02 07:37:20.471892https://repository.urosario.edu.coRepositorio institucional EdocURedocur@urosario.edu.co
