- 摘要:The.objective.of.this.research.was. to. analyze. the. relations.among.the.educative.uses. of.ICT,.levels. of. skills. in.the. technology.handling. (ICT. Skills. Index). and. academic.performance.of.the.Barineses.university.students,. in. order. to. propose. a. model. of. causal.relations.that. represents.suitably,.the.effects. of. the.technology.use. with.academic. aims. on. the. results. in.the.studies..It.was. a.random,. cross-sectional. and. anonymous. study.that.follows.the.habitual.evolution. of.the.research.process:. it.begins.by.being.a.descriptive.research,.and.finishes.as.explanatory. study..The.sampling.was.by.conglomerates. and. stratified.groups,.in.three. stages.. The.sample.for. the.study.consisted.of. 410. Barineses.university.students... A. questionnaire.applied.by.the.students.was.used..The.statistical.analysis.was.carried.out.in.two.phases:.descriptive.univariado.and.with.structural. equations.modelling.. The. proposed. causal. model. during. the.research.development,.revealed.significant.influences.of.several.indicators.on.the.scores.obtained.in.the.ICT.Skills.Index..not.occurring.the.same.in.relation.to.the.influence.of.this.last.index.on.the.Academic.performance.of.the.Barineses.university.students...This.result.seems.to.support,.the.often.outstanding.thing.in.literature. on. the. subject,. in. relation. to. the. difficulties.found. until. now. by. the.researchers,. to.demonstrate.the.effectiveness.of.the.use.of.ICT.on.the.results.in.the.studies..and.it.again.places.in.centre.of.the.debate.the.well-known.paradox.of.the.non.significance.(see.Russell,.1999,.for.a.more.detailed.analysis.of.this.phenomenon).
