    Telecommunications and economic development – The 21st century: Making the evidence stronger
    (Elsevier, 2020) Marbán Flores, Raquel; Gómez Barroso, José Luis
    A review of the literature on the relation between telecommunications and economic development published since the turn of this century is undertaken. Two stages have been considered: until 2008, most contributions continued to examine the role of telecommunications taken together; since 2009, the impact of broadband –and, to a lesser extent, of mobile communications– dominates the research agenda. All in all, the role of telecommunications as a catalyst to leverage economic growth has been conclusively proven over the years. Taking into consideration the shortcomings of previous research, suggestions for future work are also provided

    Feel free to use my personal data: an experiment on disclosure behavior when shopping online
    (Emerald, 2021) Gómez Barroso, José Luis
    Purpose: The goal of the article is twofold: to determine the effectiveness of monetary incentives for disclosing personal information, and to confirm the existence of a bite the bullet effect whereby people more easily accept providing personal data if they become aware of the requirement when the purchasing decision is almost taken. Design/methodology/approach: An experiment in which participants made a real purchase on the AliExpress marketplace was carried out. They were asked to login either via the Facebook button or by creating a username and password. A different reimbursement of the price paid for their purchase was offered in each case. This information was presented either at the beginning of the purchasing process or just before completing the purchase order. Findings: The monetary incentive proved to work well. The bite the bullet effect could not be assessed because many participants willingly gave their data to the company even if they had decided not to buy anything. Social implications: While people continue to publicly declare that they have privacy concerns, their behavior could not be further removed from such concerns. Practical implications: From a managerial perspective, this is good news. This is a calamity from a policy perspective. More experiments carried out in real settings are needed as a first step for reconsidering public action. Originality/value: Experiment in a completely real setting, in which participants made a purchase using their own credit card.

    Telecommunications and economic development – The 20th century: the building of an evidence base
    (Elsevier, 2020) Marbán Flores, Raquel; Gómez Barroso, José Luis
    The literature on the relation between telecommunications and economic development published during the 20th century has been reviewed. It all began in 1963 with the publication of the Jipp curve. Over the twenty years that followed, there was hardly any noteworthy, at least academic, contribution. Already in the eighties, the debate was still focused towards the role of telecommunications in the integration of developing countries into the world economy. In the last decade of the century, subsequent research broadened the scope –the lack of an adequate telecommunication infrastructure is a serious drawback for any country–, and also made a qualitative and quantitative jump forward

    Economic complexity and Information Society paradigms: a hybrid contribution to explain economic growth
    (Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, 2022) Jurado González, Javier; Gómez Barroso, José Luis
    In the last decades, the Information Society (IS) paradigm has brought together various research lines related to the diffusion and adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and their contribution to economic, social and human development. On the other hand, other research lines have recently explored the phenomenon of Economic Complexity (EC), providing new metrics to quantify this decisive factor for the prediction of economic growth and other human relevant variables. This article explores these two trends with the construction of two composite indexes. Then, it evaluates their explanatory power to predict economic growth, first separately, and afterwards together. The results show they can predict economic growth and improve their predictive capacity by working combined. In the conclusions, some difficulties and challenges for the development of these metrics are analyzed

    Un análisis del comportamiento de la sociedad española con respecto a la protección de la privacidad en internet
    (Federación Española de Sociología, 2020) Feijóo González, Claudio; Gómez Barroso, José Luis
    La privacidad es un fenómeno social cuya descripción no ha recibido la atención que merece dada la creciente revelación y uso de información personal en relaciones privadas y públicas. A partir de una encuesta completada por 1.650 individuos, este artículo investiga las variables que definen a quienes muestran una mayor preocupación por la privacidad en internet y a aquellos que siguen unos hábitos que permiten un mejor control de los datos que ceden. Tener antecedentes de problemas con la seguridad o de irritación por la invasión de la esfera privada es en ambos casos la variable más significativa. Está acompañada por otros factores relacionados con la actividad en internet y experiencia en su uso; las variables socioeconómicas o demográficas juegan un papel secundario.
