Abstract
Social integration through communication with family and friends can fulfill human’s desires of being cherished and respected. Such communications are very important for the elderly people, especially for those who have retired. Online social communities can help with this and provide positive effect on elderly people. But the elderly are quite reluctant to work with new technologies and hence, researchers have tried to implement specially designed social media application in easy user-interface devices for the elderly. In this paper, we conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to collect and review studies to understand the different user-interaction devices used for the elderly to promote social connection. 33 literature papers were identified within the years 2013–2019 following a review procedure, which presents research on online social communities for elders. The papers are analyzed and classified further to understand the current state-of-the-art focus. This study further offers related discussion and conclusions.
