本研究旨在探讨培训对老年人使用互联网管理其医疗保健的意愿的影响。最有趣的结果是，在70名志愿者中，有58名女性。结果表明，受过高等教育的妇女谁拥有一台电脑或有机会获得一个，并有低水平的焦虑对计算机，强烈的自我效能感对计算机和互联网，和内部控制点，比男性更愿意使用互联网来寻找医疗信息来管理慢性健康问题。
This study was designed to explore the effects that training had on older adults' willingness to use the Internet to manage their health care. The most interesting result was that out of 70 self-volunteers, 58 were women. Results show that highly educated women who either own a computer or have access to one, and have low levels of anxiety toward computers, with strong feelings of self-efficacy toward computers and the Internet, and an internal locus of control, are more willing than men to use the Internet to find medical information to manage a chronic health problem.
