While common across our participants’ experiences of ageing, these themes were notable for the diverse ways they were experienced and expressed within individual lives and for the different roles technology was used for within each. A brief discussion of how the diversity of our ageing population implicates the design of emerging technologies ends the paper. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01504911/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01504911/file/978-3-642-40477-1_37_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01504911 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01504911 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-8119
