Abstract

This paper takes an intersectional perspective to investigate the effect of socio-demographic variables that may constitute to digital divide. The concept of digital divide emerged from a perspective on unequal access to digital technology and relates nowadays primarily the differences in the competencies necessary to handle this technology. To investigate digital divide, the present paper uses the PIAAC framework of digital competencies which is called problemsolving intechnology-richenvironments (PS-TRE). It introduces the approach of intersectionality that describes persons impaired by multiple inequalities.
