초록

본 연구는 디지털 미디어 리터러시 격차의 현황과 원인을 리터러시의 세부요인을 중심으로 탐구하는데 목적이 있다. 특히 세대와 경제수준 변인이 디지털 미디어 리터러시의 세부요인별로 어떠한 격차를 발생시키는지를 실증적 데이터를 중심으로 분석하였다. 어린이, 청소년, 성인, 고연령층에 이르는 미디어 이용자 총 2,171명을 대상으로 실시한 설문조사 결과, 세대간 집단 차이는 디지털 미디어 리터러시의 8개 세부요인에 따라 각각 상이한 양상을 보였다. 경제수준 역시 격차에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 분석되었으나, 세대 변인과의 상호작용 효과에 의해, 성인집단에서만 유의미한 차이를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과를 바탕으로 디지털 미디어 리터러시 격차를 해소하기 위한 정책방안을 제시하였다.

This study aims to analyze the current state and causes of digital media literacy divide according to its sub-factors. The effects of the generation and the economic status, among other variables, have been explored using empirical data from a large-scale survey of 2,171 media users including children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. The results showed that the effects of generation and economic status varied according to 8 components of digital media literacy. The economic status of media users has also been found to influence the divide among adults group and through the interaction effect with the generation factor. Policy suggestions for the solution of digital media literacy divide were discussed in conclusion.
