The graphs above give information about computer ownership as a percentage of the population between 2002 and 2010, and by level of education for the years 2002 and 2010.
The bar graphs illustrate the percentage of
computer
possession, with a further
categorisation by academic background from 2002 to 2010.
Looking from an overall
perspective, the proportion of computer
ownership witnessed a steady growth throughout the period given. It is also
clear that higher educational attainment corresponds to higher levels of computer
holding.
In 2002, just over half of the population owned computers and it gradually increased to around 70 per cent
in 2010. Specifically, only around 15 per cent
of those who did not finish high school have a computer
and the number increased by two and a half times to 40 per cent
. Subsequently
, there were considerable increases in high school graduates and those who did not finish college by 30% reaching 65 per cent
and 85 per cent
respectively. In addition
, graduates and postgraduates were verified as the groups with the largest custody of computers both in 2002 at 70% and 75% and 90% and 95% in 2010 respectively. The portion increased by 20 percentage points to reach the top as well as
the highest across all categories.Submitted by 2024successielts on
