With the rapid development of information and communication technology, smartphoneownership has increased among older adults. While previous research has examined theimpact of smartphone use on the health of older adults, this study focuses on theless-explored relationship between smartphone use, proficiency, and health-relatedoutcomes including higher-level competence. The study was a cross-sectional survey of
208 community-dwelling older adults who used smartphones daily. Smartphone use,including years of use and applications, was assessed and categorized by age group.
Abstract
Health-related outcomes were measured, including cognitive and psychological function,higher-level competence, basic daily abilities, and physical function. The results indicatedthat smartphone proficiency decreased with age, with older adults primarily using basic
smartphone applications. Notably, higher smartphone proficiency was positively
associated with higher-level competence and physical functions. The study underscores
the importance of considering smartphone proficiency when assessing older adults’ life
skills and physical performance in our digital society.
