Abstract
Traditional smart homes emphasize the convenience brought by information technology, yet the elderly face certain challenges in accepting and mastering technological capabilities. Thus, understanding what constitutes an elderly-friendly health-smart home according to their expectations becomes a focal point in housing policies for ultra-aged societies. This study aims to construct an evaluation framework for health-smart homes based on exploring the perspectives of the elderly. Firstly, a semi-open format will be utilized to collect indicators of concern for the elderly. Secondly, dynamic Z-number will be employed to quantify the inconsistency and uncertainty in the decision-making process of the elderly. Finally, fuzzy Delphi method will be utilized to gather decision consensus. The research outcome will establish standards for evaluating elderly-friendly health-smart homes, contributing to the overall development of housing policies in ultra-aged societies.
