RESUMO

This research has suggested a new model from technology adoption, focusing digital divide. The model considerate three dimensions: access to technology, capacity to use it and aptitude toward it by a individual or group. A cubic model has been proposed, where the cube volume represents the tendency for adoption by an individual or group. To do so, it was created four research instruments: a survey form, two tests capacity-related and one projective test for aptitude study. As result, it could be seen that cube volume increases as use of technology increases. Still, there has been a singular reversal toward aptitude, which tends to decrease when the user is learning a technology new to him/her.
