El presente estudio analiza el impacto de variables sociodemográficas y regionales en la probabilidad de uso de Internet en España a nivel individual para el año 2007. A través de modelos probit se obtiene que variables sociodemográficas tales como la educación, la edad y la ocupación explican el uso de Internet. Además, se detecta que variables regionales, como el porcentaje de empleo en el sector servicios, el PIB per capita y el capital neto en TIC, explican también una mayor probabilidad de uso de Internet por los individuos. Los resultados permiten identificar variables que pueden orientar la adopción de políticas en el ámbito de la Sociedad de la Información.
This paper analyzes the impact of a variety of socioeconomic and regional factors to explain Internet use by individuals in Spain. Using probit models we obtain that socio-demographic variables explain Internet use in Spain. The influence of education, age and occupation seem to be particularly strong. We also find that regional variables (percentage of employment in the services sector, GDP per capita, ICT capital) show a positive influence on Internet use by individuals. The results allow us to identify variables to promote policy actions within the framework of the Information Society.
