TORRES GARCIA, Aldo Josafat  and  OCHOA ADAME, Gloria Lizeth. Use, appropriation and impact of ICTs on the Mexican female labor market. Rev.econ.inst. [online]. 2022, vol.24, n.47, pp.245-267.  Epub Jan 20, 2023. ISSN 0124-5996.  https://doi.org/10.18601/01245996.v22n47.11.

With the aim of contributing to the empirical discussion on the use of computer technology in the labor market, an analysis of employed women in Mexico is carried out. This tests the hypothesis that the female group presents statistically significant salary differences, favorable to users of ICT, and that the probability of obtaining a better salary is greater if these technologies are used. In addition to this, the existence of a wage premium associated with the use of computers and the Internet for women is verified. In all cases, the results are, favorable for the women who use ICT.
