Lessons Learned from Supporting Low-income Older Adults to Use a Tablet PC in the Age of Digital Divide
Abstract
Low-income older adults are more likely to face a digital divide due to the limited internet access and digital skills, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. While many studies in HCI have identified obstacles older adults encountered in technology use, little is known about the digital inequity that older adults experienced in adopting and using the tablet PC for the first time. In this study, we provided 28 low-income older adults with instruction sessions to help them set up and use tablet PCs. From these sessions, we found that while social connection as the most requested feature provides a positive experience, creating or managing a login account and being unfamiliar with common interaction techniques were challenging for older adults to use a tablet PC for the first time. We conclude with design implications for senior-friendly technology.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
