Understanding the Connection Among Ikigai, Well-Being, and Home Robot Acceptance in Japanese Older Adults: Mixed Methods Study
[PARTIAL READ AT SOURCE: the introduction, the translation-ambiguity passage, the ikigai-kan passage and parts of the qualitative findings were read at the journal's own article page. THE WHOLE PAPER WAS NOT READ] Randall, N., and colleagues (2023). 'Understanding the Connection Among Ikigai, Well-Being, and Home Robot Acceptance in Japanese Older Adults: Mixed Methods Study.' JMIR Aging, 6, e45442, published 4 October 2023. Open access. First author Natasha Randall, from the page's DC.Creator metadata; Selma Sabanovic appears as DC.Contributor. A PEER-REVIEWED ENGLISH-LANGUAGE FRAMING OF THE WORD, which lets an article avoid characterising sources it cannot read. The paper glosses ikigai as a Japanese term roughly rendered as meaning in life, a reason for living, or whatever makes one's life seem most worth living. On the translation problem, the authors note that ikigai is ambiguous for a Western audience, so they begin with a mixed methods approach to see how it maps onto other concepts in the well-being literature. AND THE TWO-PART STRUCTURE USED IN A PEER-REVIEWED VENUE: the authors argue that ikigai can come from appreciating one's life or from the absence of problems in it, so it is possible to raise ikigai without changing the content of older adults' lives (similar to fostering ikigai-kan) and without focusing on a specific object of ikigai. Their qualitative material shows the sources participants name, which are domestic and ordinary; a family carer on a relative described the day service as her ikigai, since before that she would go out to lunch and shopping with friends when she could still ride buses. USE THIS FOR THE TERM IKIGAI-KAN AS A CITABLE PEER-REVIEWED USAGE. THE ATTRIBUTION OF THE IKIGAI-KAN DISTINCTION TO KAMIYA 1966 REACHED US ONLY THROUGH SEARCH SUMMARIES OF SECONDARY SITES, NOT THROUGH KAMIYA AND NOT THROUGH A SCHOLARLY HISTORY WE READ, so it may be reported as commonly traced to her and no more. Because the whole paper was not read, nothing here describes its quantitative results, its sample, its robot-acceptance findings or its limitations.
