ABSTRACT
This research explores factors influencing the use of wearable technology by people with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS) to assist in symptom self-management. Using Q-methodology, 19 PwMS in Saudi Arabia (SA) participated. The PwMS study revealed three perspectives: supporters of wearable technology, pragmatic optimists, and cautious sceptics. The preliminary findings highlight the importance of addressing both practical and psychological barriers to facilitate wearables integration in the management of MS.
