Resumen
VANCEA, Mihaela y BOSO, Àlex. Connected Immigrants? Four Methodological Challenges for the Analysis of ICT Use through Survey Data. Migr. Inter [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.3, pp.43-72. ISSN 2594-0279.
Both the sociology of migration and the academic literature on network society tend to highlight the penetration of new information and communication technologies (ICT) in the migrant population. While there have been significant contributions to this area of knowledge from qualitative studies, very few quantitative studies examine the relationship between the migrant population and new technologies. This article outlines four methodological challenges in the analysis of migrant populations' adaptation to the network society through survey data: absence of relevant variables, possible measurement errors in the dependent variable, data collection problems and endogeneity.
