Ageing, Empowerment and Technology New Opportunities for Cultural Traditions?

International Journal of Social Work, 2024, vol. 11, issue 1, 54-69

Abstract: As computers become an increasingly integral part of the lives of older adults, the study of computer used by older adults is becoming an increasingly relevant field of study. The aim of the study is a bibliographic review to better understand the relationship of new technologies with the population of older adults. One of the consequences that appears is that to encourage and facilitate the use of new technologies by this important age group, for both personal and professional benefit, it is necessary to understand its implication in the term of cultural traditions. It should be noted that all the researches consulted insist on the increasingly important role of the new technologis in the life of old people, and far from assuming that ageing people would have a rejection to the same, is possible to perceptive an operative and surprising use of the new technologies
