SVR-study - Study on 'Profiles of (new) media literacy. An analysis of existing data'

About

In September 2011, the Study service of the Flemish Government (SVR) will organize a workshop around media literacy. Goal is to maximize the access of the data that were collected in an annual survey (SCV-survey, formerly APS-survey). This SCV-survey has a extensive module on media and ICT possession.

The focus of the research group MICT will be on the existing data. The statistical analysis from this study will be included in a contribution that will be presented at the seminar of SVR and those analysis will also be published under the form of a book chapter. The contribution of MICT is titled: 'Profiles on (new) media literacy. An analysis of existing data and the relationship with background variables.'
