dc.description.abstract | Friendships and social interactions are renown contributors
to wellbeing. As such, keeping a healthy amount of relationships becomes very important as people age and the
size of their social network tends to decrease. In this paper, we take a step back and explore reconnection —find
out about or re-contact old friends, an emerging topic due
to the increased use of computer-mediated technology by
older adults to maintain friendships and form new ones. We
report on our findings from semi-structured interviews with
28 individuals from Costa Rica and Poland. The interviews
aimed to explore whether there is a wish to reconnect, and
the challenges encountered by older adults to reconnect.
We contribute with design considerations for tools allowing older adults to reconnect, discussing opportunities for
technology | es_ES |
