Besides, this study also discuss about a mental model, what is it means and how we are going to assess a mental model by using a few methodologies that act as an approach to solving the problem faced by elderly when using particular mobile applications. Moreover, the mental model will work as a vital element in this research because it will affect the interface design that we will develop in future progress. Hence, this research will be an age-related matter as it will only focus on what are the elderly expect in interface design so that hopefully it will increase the elderly’s usability and learnability when using a mobile applications.
