Our findings suggest that generation plays a key role to differentiate inequalities in Social Networks and Internet use, although it is not a clear feature to distinguish the use of e-Services. The results reveal that the Netherlands and Luxemburg have the lowest domestic digital divide. In opposition, Croatia and Cyprus present the highest digital disparities, particularly the Baby Boomers (55-74 years) and Generation Y (16-34 years). Considering all generations, the digital leaders are Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Luxemburg. The lagged European countries are Romania and Bulgaria. Among generations, Baby Boomers are far from Generation Y in ICT adoption, while Generation X (35-54 years) plays an important role in bridging both generations. Results point to the presence of an age-related digital divide across the European Union.Oliveira, Tiago André Gonçalves Félix deJesus, Frederico Miguel Campos Cruz Ribeiro deRUNCampos, Paulo Alexandre Belo2019-06-20T00:30:43Z2016-04-282016-04-28T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/19248TID:201218836enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:00:33Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/19248Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:25:22.928524Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
