Three Phases in the Creation of Information Inequities: An Empirical Assessment of a Prototype Videotex System.

Ettema, James S.

Journal of Broadcasting, v28 n4 p389-95 Fall 1984

Social impact of a videotex system developed for farm operators is assessed by examining whose needs the system served; who were early adopters; and who most used and benefited from the system. This assessment demonstrates importance of tracing out each phase of the process by which information inequities are created. (Author/MBR)
