Digital Divide
• The gap between those people and communities who have access to information technology (IT) and those who do not, as well as the disparity in the intensity and nature of IT use among groups
(Aphek, 2001; Carvin, 2000; Jackson, Zhao, Kolenic, Fitzgerald, Harold, & Von Eye, 2008).
• Material Access: few older adults own
their own computer or have network
connections
• Usage Access: lack opportunities to use
the technology
• Skill Access: lack digital skills caused by
insufficient user friendliness and
inadequate education or social support
