The present research aims to analyze the effect of occupational intervention for digital literacy on the social participation of older adults in a church community.
Methods: A pre-experimental study with a single sample was conducted. Through convenience sampling, fifteen older adults from a church community who owned a smartphone with internet access participated. A survey was conducted to assess the level of digital literacy before and after an intervention to evaluate its effect.
Results: Significant changes were observed in the digital inclusion process and the use of information and communication technologies, increasing from 42.6% to 85.8% (p=0.0457). However, regarding the level of social participation, no significant changes were observed, possibly due to the limited duration of the intervention (p=1).
Conclusion: This intervention demonstrated that by teaching and training members of church communities on the main access platforms, the level of digital knowledge increases, allowing participation in the activities of the Adventist Church.
