With an ageing population, more and more older people are expected to remain in their living environment. Mobile robots, whose market is expected to increasingly grow, could assist them for specific tasks. Existing studies, however, show that potential users have privacy concerns. In this paper, we therefore aim at understanding factors influencing these concerns and exploring their preferences with regards to different aspects related to informational privacy. In a quantitative study with 1090 German-speaking older adults, we show that female and non-owners of robots tend to express more concerns about their privacy than others.

随着人口老龄化，越来越多的老年人有望留在自己的生活环境中。市场有望增长的移动机器人可以协助他们完成特定任务。但是，现有研究表明，潜在用户存在隐私问题。因此，在本文中，我们旨在了解影响这些问题的因素，并探讨它们在与信息隐私相关的不同方面的偏好。在对1090名讲德语的老年人进行的定量研究中，我们表明，机器人的女性和非所有者比其他人更关心自己的隐私。
