The effects of gender on internet use

Abstract

From the beginning of the appearance of the Internet, it is known that women used it less than men – the term usually did not appear in the early years – either because they were at home doing coursework or not working. In the late 2000s, where the internet evolved, firms started implementing computers and therefore providing services via internet to their clients. The employers were mainly men, due to their educational characteristics and that is why women maintained the low percentage of internet use. In this study, we will examine the gender effects on internet use, while dealing with different categories of the variables used. Starting with the description of the variables, following with some expected results driven from the graphs, to finally derive the results and conclusion remarks.
