GODOY ETCHEVERRY, Sergio y GALVEZ JOHNSON, Myrna. La brecha digital correspondiente: obstáculos y facilitadores del uso deTIC en padres de clase media y media baja en Chile. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2011, vol.6, n.18, pp.199-219. ISSN 1850-0013.
This article summarizes the findings in Chile of an internationally comparative, qualitative study aimed to identify the reasons explaining why and how persons do appropriate information and communication technologies (ICTs), particularly Internet and mobile phones. This required studying a segment of population rarely analyzed, which shows considerable pressure to engage with ICTs: middle and lower-middle class mothers and fathers of children at schooling age. This was done by means of focus groups. To put these results into context, a synthesis of quantitative data from the World Internet Project (WIP) is also presented. Both authors are related to the WIP project.
