“…In further support of older adults using computers, Weisman (1983) found that even frail elderly adults are able to use computers. In similar studies, results demonstrated that computer use increases social interaction, increases selfesteem, decreases depression, increases feelings of self control, and improves mental capabilities (Links & Frydenberg, 1989;McConatha, McConatha, Deaner, & Dermigny, 1995;McConatha, McConatha, & Dermigny, 1994). Adler (1996) provided a summary report of a SeniorNet survey of older adults.…”

“…Nursing home residents who had computer training showed improved scores in the Activities of Daily Living scale, the geriatric depressions scale, and the Mini Mental State Exam (cognitive function) (McConatha, McConatha, Deaner, & Dermigny, 1995). Cody, Dunn, Hoppin, and Pamela (1999) found that older adults residing in assisted living facilities and independent living facilities who learned how to use Web-TV had positive attitudes toward aging, increased levels of perceived social support, and reduced anxiety about technology.…”

“…Coexistem estudos, como o de Banhato et al (2007), J. T. McConatha et al (1995) e Ordonez et al (2010), que obtiveram resultados bastante favoráveis e outros, como, por exemplo, o realizado por Slegers et al (2009), que chegaram a resultados bem menos abonadores. Tais divergêncvias podem ter relação com os sujeitos estudados, intervenções realizadas e instrumentos utilizados, por exemplo.…”

“…No pré-teste, eles já possuíam uma linha de base bastante alta nas várias medidas, o que pode ter limitado a capacidade de o experimento -Oficinas de Inclusão Digital -promover ganhos para o GE nos processos cognitivos observados. Desse modo, sugere-se que outras pesquisas análogas a esta, mas envolvendo indiví-duos com algum declínio ou residentes em instituições de longa permanência para idosos, como na investigação de J. T. McConatha et al (1995), sejam realizadas para que se conheçam os efeitos da alfabetização em informática nesse tipo de população.…”
