Literacia digital em jovens

Abstract

A literacia digital dos jovens, enquanto competência essencial para a vida em sociedade no século XXI, tem o potencial de concorrer para a sua empregabilidade e para o crescimento económico da sociedade. Este estudo pretende analisar o nível da literacia digital de jovens portugueses, considerando as diferenças de sexo, curso de ensino secundário e ano letivo. A amostra é constituída por 311 estudantes do 10.º ano (n = 185, 59.5% raparigas), com idades entre os 14 e os 20 anos (M idade = 15.44, DP idade = .81), a frequentar cursos cientifico-humanísticos (n = 191, 61.4%) e cursos profissionais (n = 120, 38.6%) de escolas do noroeste de Portugal. Os dados foram recolhidos nos anos letivos de 2020-21 (n = 165, 63.1%) e de 2021-22 (n = 146, 46.9%). Foram analisadas as respostas às subescalas de habilidade crítica, habilidade informacional e habilidade em comunicação da Escala de Literacia Digital. Os resultados de análises fatoriais exploratórias orientaram a decisão por uma solução de dois fatores que explicam 54.31% da variância, com boa consistência interna, com coeficientes Cronbach alfa de .85 e .68 nas subescalas de habilidade crítica e informacional, respetivamente, após se excluírem os itens da subescala da habilidade em comunicação. Os resultados das ANOVAS bifatoriais evidenciaram os efeitos principais do sexo e curso de ensino secundário, nas perceções de habilidade crítica. Evidencia-se a importância de se considerar o nível da literacia digital quando se utilizam meios e tecnologias digitais como ferramentas de avaliação psicológica de carreira.

The digital literacy of young people, as an essential skill for life in society in the 21st century, has the potential to contribute to their employability and, consequently, to the economic growth of society. This study aims to analyse the level of digital literacy of young Portuguese, considering the differences according to gender, secondary education courses and school year. The sample consists of 311, 10th grade students (n = 185, 59.5% girls), ages between 14 and 20 years (M age = 15.44, SD age = .81), attending scientifichumanistic courses (n = 191, 61.4%) and professional courses (n = 120, 38.6%) from schools in the northwest of Portugal. Data were collected in the 2020-21 (n = 165, 63.1%) and 2021-22 (n = 146, 46.9%) school years. Responses to the critical skill, informational skill and communication skill subscales of the Digital Literacy Scale were analysed. The results of exploratory factor analyses guided the decision for a two-factor solution, explaining 54.31% of the variance, with good internal consistency, with Cronbach alpha coefficients of .85 and .68 in the critical and informational skills subscales, respectively, after excluding the items of the communication skill subscale. The results of the bifactor ANOVAs showed the main effects of gender and secondary education course on perceptions of critical skill. The importance of considering the level of digital literacy when using digital media and technologies as career assessment tools is highlighted.
