노인의 디지털 리터러시와 사회활동

초록

Elderly people are one of the most vulnerable groups in accessing and using digital devices. Digital alienation not only degrades the use of digital devices by the elderly, but also negatively affects their quality of life, economic activities, and social participation. The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between subjective age perception of the elderly and digital literacy level, and further to empirically analyze the effects of these variables on elderly people’s social participation. It was found that the level of digital literacy of the elderly was very low, and their digital literacy level had a significant effect on social activity participation and satisfaction. Drawing on these findings, this study made important policy suggestions to promote digital literacy for the elderly.
