DIGITAL PARTICIPATION OF CHILDREN AND PARENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DIGITAL GENERATIONAL DIVIDE

Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the social-demographic characteristics of the digital participation of parents and children aged 10-14 in Slovakia. We focus on a mechanism of intergenerational reproduction of patterns of behavior in the digital space (digital habitus). Reflecting the digital competencies and the patterns of behavior in the digital space, we examine the forms of the digital generational divide in the studied groups. We point to the reduction of the digital generation divide of digital literacy and to formation of Internet generation of parents. We also stress the significance of digital habitus of parents in the context of the formation of a safe digital participation of children and reduction of the risks of participation in the digital space.
