About
Pingshuang Li is a leading researcher at the intersection of gerontechnology and human-robot interaction, with a primary focus on understanding and enhancing technology acceptance among older adults. Their most influential work, a 2024 qualitative study on socially assistive robots, has already garnered 21 citations, demonstrating its rapid impact. In this landmark paper, Li applies the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation Behavior (COM-B) model to systematically identify barriers and facilitators to robot adoption from multiple stakeholder perspectives—including older users, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. This contribution is notable for moving beyond simple technology acceptance models to provide a nuanced, behaviorally grounded framework that can inform the design of more user-friendly assistive robots. Li’s research is particularly valuable for its practical implications, offering actionable insights for engineers, policymakers, and practitioners aiming to integrate socially assistive robots into aging-in-place and long-term care settings. By bridging theoretical models with real-world qualitative evidence, Li has established themselves as a key voice in the ongoing effort to make technology truly accessible and beneficial for the aging population.
