dc.description.abstract | Purpose: The aim of this study was to clarify how health satisfaction, socio-demographic background, and country of residence in older internet users correspond with their preference for COVID-19 information sources or for behaviors aimed at acquiring this information.
Methods: The sample (N=4233) was drawn from the 2020 wave of the Ageing+Communication+Technologies (ACT) cross-national longitudinal research study. Multinomial and logistic regression models were employed to analyze the data.
Results: An association was found between health satisfaction and preference for interpersonal communication to obtain COVID-19 information over traditional media consumed via traditional devices. Substantial socio-demographic (gender, age, education, marital status) diferences were found, particularly regarding preference for digital media. Moreover, sizable cross-country diferences were detected.
Conclusions: The results point to the existence of a remarkable divide with respect to the COVID-19 information source/ behavior preference even in a digitally advantaged population. Public decision makers and communities should be more involved in assisting older adults to obtain necessary and up-to-date information regarding COVID-19. | en |
