Even with near-universal internet, material access still shapes digital inequality: device diversity and maintenance costs affect skills, use, and outcomes. #DigitalDivide #InternetAccess #DigitalSkills doi.org/10.1177/1461...

"DIGITAL DIVIDE'S THREE TIERS INTERACTION" This conceptual model frames the digital divide as access, use, and outcomes, and argues that outcomes depend on how well technology fits user tasks and skills. #DigitalDivide #TaskTechnologyFit #ICT doi.org/10.48009/4_i...

The digital divide has three orders: access to internet-enabled devices, the skills to use them, and differences in how digital media is used and for what ends. #DigitalDivide #DigitalSkills #Participation doi.org/10.1016/b978...
