摘要：

　　The China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS,2013)data was used to investigate internet use and mobile phone ownership in older Chinese adults and examine digital divide and social economic status and mobile technology adoption and health outcomes associations.Results suggest a significant digital divide associated with not only individual characteristics,but also neighborhood resources.Future eHealth programs should consider the accessibility of mobile tools and develop culturally appropriate programs for different social groups.
