Abstract

This study examines the general patterns of computer use and response to computer-assisted instruction by 701 older adults aged forty-five to seventy, in three major metropolitan areas. Findings support the expectation that older people can be enthusiastic computer users irrespective of education or other socio-economic variables. The results raise interesting questions about the negative bias which may be introduced by classroom instructors as mediators of instructional technology.
