AbstractTechnological culture is a global reality. Its social practices are mediated by information and communication technologies, which contribute to social processes and facilitate everyday activities, such as sending instant messages, paying bills online, and so forth. Given the increase in life expectancy and the goal of active aging, digital mobile technologies are important for older people to interact with and relate to contemporary changes around them – as these devices vary greatly and constantly and offer a wide range of accessible use options (Nimrod, 2020). Hence, this study aimed to analyze the influence of the educational attainment of Northeastern Brazilian older adults on their proficiency with mobile devices.Keywords: aged, elderly people, digital inclusion, mobile devices, survey, questionnaire
