Description
Yutian Cheng and Yasuyuki Gondo built a scale to measure older adults' confidence with smartphones in a 2024 paper. Many older adults use phones only for calls, and programs to speed adoption need a way to gauge confidence first. Confidence is a known guide for later training studies.
The authors drafted thirty-eight items from earlier research and from their own smartphone lectures for older adults. They then surveyed Japanese adults aged sixty to eighty-nine online. The resulting scale gives teachers and researchers a tested way to measure how ready older users feel before training begins.
