Limitations
This study has a few limitations. First, the EDLQ is a self-report measure; therefore, it is limited in its ability to perfectly capture objective proficiency. Second, although the EDLQ was developed for older adults, interpretation of the results is limited because the DigComp framework referenced in its development is not specific to older adults. To better understand the digital literacy of older adults, it is recommended to apply the EDLQ to different age groups in a follow-up study and compare the results. Third, the criterion validity of the EDLQ has not been tested because digital literacy is a dynamic concept that is rapidly evolving, and there is no gold standard for assessment [
