Description
Alvin Ho, Daisy Li, and Dannii Yeung ask whether using technology boosts a sense of personal control more after retirement, in a research paper from 2023. The study covered nearly two thousand four hundred middle-aged and older adults. It looked at tech use for social, leisure, money, and health purposes.
For retired people, tech use for leisure and money tasks was linked to a stronger sense of control. The link for health tasks appeared only in the retired group. Social tech use showed no such split. The authors suggest that tech activity may help retirees make up for the loss of control and identity that can come with leaving work.
