To explore the mediating effect of self-perceived aging on the relationship between digital health literacy and technophobia of the rural elderly.
By using the method of multi-stage sampling, 503 rural elderly in Hebei Province were investigated by general data questionnaire, technophobia scale, simplified self-perceived aging scale, and digital health literacy assessment scale from July to August, 2023. The mediating effect test program was used for mediating analysis and Bootstrap test was used for verification.
The scores of technophobia, self-perceived aging, and technophobia of the elderly in rural areas of Hebei Province were 36.40±10.22, 51.99±8.24, and 39.76±13.82, respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that digital health literacy was negatively correlated with technophobia and self-perceived aging (r=0.433, P < 0.001; r=0.454, P < 0.001), while self-perceived aging was positively correlated with technophobia (r=0.401, P < 0.001). The mediating effect test results showed that self-perceived aging had mediating effect between digital health literacy and technophobia of the rural elderly, and the mediating effect accounted for 40.0%.
Digital health literacy and self-perceived aging of the elderly directly affect technophobia. At the same time, digital health literacy can also indirectly affect technophobia through self-perceived aging.
