“…Second, our sample was composed of older adults who lived in Ontario, and were mostly female, highly educated, and married. This gender distribution is consistent with earlier studies on older adults and information technologies use [ 9 , 35 ], which suggest that female older adults are more likely to participate in an online survey. Therefore, cautions should be taken when interpreting our survey findings.…”

“…Drawing on the literature on social capital, we develop a conceptual model ( Figure 1 ) that illustrates the relationships among older adults’ online social networks (bonding and bridging social capital), social transmission of negative information, and COVID-19 anxiety are proposed.
