Source Disabled less likely to use web: study CBC News Adults who are disabled are much less likely to use the internet — deterred by a number of factors — which can create obstacles for them in an increasingly digital world, a new U.S. study suggests. Only 54 per cent of U.S. adults living with a disability go online, hindered by income, education and specific mental or physical limitations, according to a study released Friday by the Pew Research Center. The centre surveyed 3,000 Americans by phone and found that of those with disabilities, 46 per cent live with an annual household income of less than $30,000 US, while almost 60 per cent are 50 years old or older, creating financial and generational roadblocks to active web use among adults who are disabled.
