Evaluation of a Physical Therapist-Delivered Technology Literacy Algorithm and Protocol for Older Adults: A Pilot Study.

Introduction Technology literacy is the ability to comfortably understand, use, and navigate digital devices. It is considered a "super social determinant of health", and yet 39% of adults aged 65+ report not using a smartphone, and 25% of seniors still lack internet access. The purpose of this study was to examine the applicability of a physical therapist-delivered clinical assessment tool related to technological literacy and to identify relationships between technology utilization and perceptions related to sociodemographic factors in community-dwelling older adults.
