RESIDUES OF CELL PHONES AND TABLETS: INCIDENCE OF THE SCHOOL LEVEL IN THE ATTITUDES AND PERCEPTIONS IN FRONT OF ITS HANDLING. rev.udcaactual.divulg.cient. [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.1, pp.243-252.

The technological advance has brought with it the generation of cell and tablet waste. This trend will continue to increase, given the easy access to these devices. In the following study, the incidence of schooling level is related to attitudes and perceptions about the handling of cell and tablet waste, in order to deepen this problem and provide inputs for the creation of strategies and policies aimed at sustainable development. For this, a survey was applied to 450 people living in the city of Florencia Caquetá Colombia. An independence test was carried out, which allowed to decide if the level of schooling affects attitudes and perceptions. The results obtained indicated that there is no such dependence on attitudes, but with perceptions, this shows the human being’s lack of balance between what he thinks and how he acts. A relevant finding in the present study, is that the vast majority of these devices or their parts, after a while end up in the trash, along with conventional waste.
