Centennials, millennials, smartphones, redes sociales, teoría de Usos y GratificacionesResumen
El objetivo de nuestra investigación es medir cómo los usos y motivaciones para usar teléfonos inteligentes por parte de la joven población chilena han cambiado a través del tiempo y cómo estas motivaciones para comprometerse con los teléfonos inteligentes afectan el tiempo dedicado a enviar mensajes de texto en estos dispositivos portátiles.
Replicamos una encuesta cara a cara entre millennials y centennials chilenos, realizada por primera vez en 2009 (n= 1.320), repetida en 2015 (n= 744) y realizada nuevamente en 2021 (n= 846). Esta última ola se realizó entre julio y noviembre a sujetos de entre 18 y 25 años residentes en Chile.
El cuestionario incluyó 44 preguntas basadas en escalas previamente validadas en estudios que relacionan la Teoría de Usos y Gratificaciones con los teléfonos móviles, actitudes hacia la tecnología y evaluaciones de los usuarios sobre los atributos de los teléfonos móviles definidas por Albarran (2009). También se incluyeron variables relacionadas con datos demográficos (por ejemplo, zona de residencia) y de género, que los encuestados declararon.
La mayoría de las motivaciones para utilizar teléfonos inteligentes medidas en nuestra encuesta de 2021 fueron las mismas que medimos en 2015 y 2009, pero otras son nuevas. Para medir cómo ha cambiado el atractivo de las motivaciones a lo largo del tiempo, realizamos una comparación de medias. También realizamos un análisis factorial exploratorio para agregar motivaciones y análisis de regresión para cuantificar cómo las motivaciones afectaban el tiempo que los jóvenes dedicaban a enviar mensajes de texto.
