Abstract
Ese trabajo examina el efecto del origen familiar sobre el tiempo y el tipo de uso de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) por parte de los estudiantes españoles. A través de un análisis de la frecuencia y el tipo de uso de las TIC con datos obtenidos directamente de los estudiantes, nuestro estudio ofrece evidencia novedosa del impacto de la educación de los padres sobre el tiempo y el tipo de uso de las TIC para una muestra de estudiantes españoles. Ponemos de manifiesto que un mayor nivel educativo de los padres reduce el tiempo de uso de las TIC por parte del estudiante y, a la vez, aumenta su propensión a utilizarlas con fines educativos. Otro hallazgo empírico de la investigación es que el grado de homogamia educativa en la pareja ejerce un efecto adicional en la variable dependiente.
This work examines the effect of family background on the amount of time students devote to the use of new information and communications technology (ICT) and on its type of use. Through an analysis of the frequency and type of use of ICT with data obtained directly from students, our study offers new evidence on the impact of parental education on the time and type of use of ICT for a sample of Spanish students. We show that the educational level of parents reduces the amount of time students devote to the use of Internet and, in turn, increases their propensity to use it for educational purposes. Another empirical finding of our research is that the degree of educational homogamy in the couple exerts an additional effect on the dependent variable.
