Research Title: Aging Concerns, Challenges, and Everyday Solution
Strategies (ACCESS 3) Needs Assessment



Being conducted by: University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; Georgia
Institute of Technology



Purpose of the Study

We are conducting an interview study exploring the everyday activities and
challenges of older adults with long-term vision difficulties from diverse
backgrounds. We are interested in understanding the challenges and how they
manage them as they age.



Role of the Participants and Anticipated Length of the Study

The study consists of two parts:

Part 1: Screening, Consent & Questionnaires (45-60 minutes): After you
complete the phone screening and agree to participate, you will be asked to
complete a questionnaire about your background/demographics (e.g., age,
health, sensory, and physical abilities) as well as a questionnaire about
your vision.



Part 2: Interview (1-1.5 hours): During the interview, you will be asked
about everyday challenges and how you handle them. All interviews will be
audio recorded for transcription.



Proposed Participant Compensation

Yes, you will be compensated with Amazon E-codes for the collective amount
of $50.00. Payments will be distributed after you complete part 1 (consent
and background questionnaire; $20.00) and part 2 (interview; $30) or at the
end of participation. You can request an alternative form of compensation
(i.e., a check), which may take longer. Additional e-code compensation may
be offered for interviews that run longer (prorated at $15/hour).
