Resumen

La percepción y nivel de competencias digitales de los estudiantes universitarios suscitan un tema de interés actual, debido a que se ha documentado que existe una brecha digital de género. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue de­terminar la existencia de una brecha digital entre alumnos universitarios, de acuerdo a su per­cepción, por género. Se llevó a cabo una investigación cuantitativa, de corte transversal, durante febrero de 2021, para conocer la autopercepción sobre las competencias digitales que tenían los estudiantes de la Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas (UAZ), segmentándola por género: hombre, mujer y miembro de la comunidad LGBTI. Se consideraron las dimensiones Información, Comunicación y Creación de Contenidos del instrumento DIGCOMP 1.0. La prueba de normalidad Kolmogórov-Smirnov indicó que no se tenía distribución normal en los datos y estos se analizaron mediante la prue­ba estadística no paramétrica hipótesis H de Kruskal-Wallis. Los hombres y los miembros de la comunidad LGBTI se autopercibieron con mejores competencias digitales que las muje­res en el uso de odenadores, así como en el uso de editores de video y de audio. Es conveniente determinar si esta autopercepción está asociada con una brecha digital de género en la práctica. Los resultados sugieren la necesidad de programas de intervención que mejoren las competencias digitales de la población estudiantil universitaria, con mayor énfasis en las mujeres.
