Abstract

As information and communications technologies, along with follow-up processes, are being rapidly developed and implemented in various aspects of everyday life, a need has arisen to explore and describe these changes. The authors reflect on whether there are any significant differences in the availability and use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in individual EU countries related to cultural differences among these countries. The aim of the paper is to analyze selected aspects of the use of information technologies in selected EU countries in connection with “national behaviour patterns”, and to ascertain, using a multidimensional data analysis, whether or not there are any significant differences at the level of individuals within an international comparison of the selected EU countries.
Informační a komunikační technologie (ICT) se stávají integrální součástí ostatních produktů a služeb, zvyšují tak jejich přidanou hodnotu a zefektivňují procesy a služby poskytované obyvatelstvu i ekonomickým subjektům. Cílem příspěvku je analyzovat vybrané aspekty užívání informačních a komunikačních technologií ve vybraných zemích EU v v souvislosti s “národními vzorci chování “.
