Abstrakt

W artykule zaprezentowano wyniki polskiej edycji badania World Internet Project, gdzie wskazano na zróżnicowanie ze względu na płeć społeczno-kulturową zarówno jeśli chodzi o częstotliwość korzystania z Internetu, jak sposobu w jaki jest on używany. Główna różnica dotyczy wykorzystywania Internetu w celu rozrywki (gry, słuchanie muzyki, oglądanie filmów) częściej przez mężczyzn niż kobiety. W raporcie nie stwierdzono jednak znaczących dysproporcji ze względu na płeć społeczno-kulturową (gender gap) między polskimi użytkownikami Internetu.
