The second study on ‘The Internet in Spain’ is based on a wide-ranging survey (as regards both sample size and issues broached) into how Internet is being used, its impact on different areas of life and what users see as its main strengths and critical areas. It also looks at perceived barriers to access, and the possibilities of future take-up among today’s non users.

DESCRIPTION

The second study on ‘The Internet in Spain’ is based on a wide-ranging survey ? as regards both sample size and issues broached ? into how Internet is being used, its impact on different areas of life and what users see as its main strengths and critical areas. It also looks at perceived barriers to access, and the possibilities of future take-up among today?s non users.

The information in this study was obtained by surveying a representative sample of the Spanish population aged 14 years and over, with a sample size of 6,013. The fieldwork was carried out between November 2007 and February 2008. The survey’s design and analysis were the work of the Social Studies Unit of the BBVA Foundation.

The BBVA Foundation completed a first round of the survey in 2005. Hence the data in this edition provide not just a ‘snapshot’ of Internet use but a picture of how it has developed over time.
