The group is noteworthy in today's society due to its growing numbers and burgeoning economic strength. Literature paints the senior citizens as computer illiterates. However, the author believes that demographic factors like users' age, income, education, experience, gender, disability and computer ownership status can considerably thwart or alternatively, enhance older adults' possibilities to bond with computers via the phenomenon of computer-anxiety. The author states that limitations inherent in computer systems' features, coupled with physiological infirmities due to advancing age, prevent the seniors from interacting with computers. The author establishes that the presence or alternatively absence of the above variables have the potential of notching up or lowering computer-anxiety levels among older computer users, thereby affecting their possibilities of successfully working with computers. The book also offers a comprehensive view of almost all the factors known to positively or negatively influence older users' interaction with computers. This is a must read for researchers and students studying gerontology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.47 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 04, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43155358646335,"sku":"9783639068764","price":147.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/57ATsBLaA89783639068764.webp?v=1776964227","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/older-adults-and-computers-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
