Performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and perceived privacy and security are direct predictors of older people's intention to use videoconferencing. Self-efficacy appeared to play a role in both older people's intention to use, as well as their actual use of technology.

Furthermore, self-efficacy and digital literacy appeared to play a major role in older people's capacities to make use of digital technology.
