Older adults' self-perception, technology anxiety, and intention to use digital public services.
Article in BMC public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
To improve the happiness of the older adults enjoying digital public services, this study examines the structural relationship among self-perception of aging, subjective well-being, technology anxiety, self-efficacy, perceived usefulness, and intention to use digital public services for older adults in the context of digital public services. We employ Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for empirical analysis (N = 345, February to October 2023). The negative self-perception of aging may lead to the negative emotions of older adults on technology, which will reduce subjective well-being and increase technology anxiety. Technology anxiety indirectly affects the intention to use digital public services, which has an impact on the intention to use through the perceived usefulness and the complete mediating path of self-efficacy and perceived usefulness. Perceived usefulness is the most important factor affecting the behavior intention of older adults to use digital public services. Our study would provide reference to promote older adults' digital literacy and silver happiness and promote the development of the silver digital economy.
