By 2023, 88 percent of female internet users in Finland used the internet to look up health information on the internet. Among men this share was lower with only 77 percent.
The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people according to gender. This disparity, although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
