Tiivistelmä: | This study explores digital divides in terms of social inequality in digital access and use patterns from a hierarchical perspective. Based on data from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2003 in 30 nations, the focus is on social cleavages in mid-adolescents' access and use of digital technologies, considering both individual-level and country-level influences. Among others, it is shown that adolescents from higher socio-economic and 2-parent family households are more likely to have Internet access at home. In addition, adolescents from higher-status families use the Internet more often for informational purposes than children from lower-status families. |
