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.</p>","PeriodicalId":47836,"journal":{"name":"Health Care for Women International","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141894572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High CM rates are continuing in circumstances of tenacious unequal gender norms, widespread poverty, limited schooling and economic prospects for girls, and weak awareness and enforcement of CM laws. Other contributing factors were opposition to women and girls' sexual, bodily, and reproductive rights; weak birth registration systems; a high proportion of women who married young in previous generations; early puberty; improved girls' agency; and the growing number of boys and young men who, having acquired locally prized masculinity resources, feel compelled to marry.
