Abstract
China is one of the most rapidly aging countries in the world, challenging the sustainable aging. The booming of digital technology is a double-edged sword. According to the Smart Aging Policies (SAPs), digital technology is supposed to be an effective way to address the challenges of the elder care system. However, the digital divide is causing additional problems. In this study, researchers aim to investigate whether the digital divide among older people could lead to gender-based discrepancies in elder care utilization, using data from the "China Elder Care Satisfaction Survey (CECSS)." Through logit regression analysis, in this study, researchers assessed the relationship between gender and digital elder care utilization, indicating the presence of a gender digital divide among older people. Our findings have important implications for facilitating minority groups to benefit more from SAPs and for advancing research on the gender digital divide among elders to promote sustainable aging.
中国是世界上老龄化速度最快的国家之一，对可持续老龄化提出了挑战。数字技术的蓬勃发展是一把双刃剑。根据智能老龄化政策（SAPs），数字技术本应是应对老年护理系统挑战的有效途径。然而，数字鸿沟却带来了更多的问题。在本研究中，研究人员利用 "中国老年护理满意度调查（CECSS）"的数据，旨在调查老年人中的数字鸿沟是否会导致老年护理利用中的性别差异。在本研究中，研究人员通过对数回归分析，评估了性别与数字养老利用率之间的关系，表明老年人中存在性别数字鸿沟。我们的研究结果对促进少数群体从 SAP 中更多受益，以及推进老年人性别数字鸿沟研究以促进可持续老龄化具有重要意义。
