Abstract
The growth of interest in developing a model for effective parental support in the home-computing of disabled children calls for an investigation of the introduction and integration of computers into homes. In order to study the ecological aspects of technology diffusion as related to the locations and usages of computers within the home environment of mildly disabled children, and parental support for the children’s home-computing, an additional survey was conducted at Tel-Aviv University (Margalit, Rochberg, & Greenberg, 1988). The survey pinpointed three main aspects:
-
1
Diffusion of innovations.
-
2
Computer usages in these homes.
-
3
Parental characteristics as technology users.
