RT Journal Article T1 Incidence of a Non-Sustainability Use of Technology on Students’ Reading Performance in Pisa A1 Vázquez Cano, Esteban A1 Gómez Galán, José A1 Infante Moro, Alfonso A1 López Meneses, Eloy AB This article describes an investigation that made a comparative analysis of the influence ofthe use of technology for non-academic activities on the reading performance of students in 21 countrieswithin the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), as measured by theProgram for International Student Assessment (PISA). To do this, we coded the SumIC001-008-010variables (“Devices available at home” and “How often do you use digital devices for the followingactivities outside school”) in the PISA survey and quantified the e ect by the proportion of varianceexplained of each variable in the model for each country. The results show that the reading scoreincreases according to the variable for type and quantity of devices at home but falls drastically inall 21 countries when the “SumIC001” variable exceeds 15 points. Our research also found that thetwo activities that most negatively impacted reading performance if done on a regular basis were“playing online games via social networks” and “uploading your own created contents.” These resultswould seem to confirm that the non-sustainability and prolonged use of technology outside school isobjectively negative for the development of reading competence in young people.
