New studies indicate elderly are capable of mastering new tools and technologies

Can elderly people really learn how to use new technologies and adapt themselves in learning new tools? The answer, according to researcher Dr. Amir Jahanian Najafabadi and colleagues at Constructor University in Bremen, is yes. Two studies, recently published in the journal Experimental Brain Research on June 12, 2023, point to findings indicating that elderly individuals are just as capable as their younger counterparts to master new tools and technologies.
