“…The rapid development of e-government service systems objectively improves citizen access to government information and services. E-government promises greater accountability and transparency (Wilson, 2012), enhances direct democratic processes and reduces bureaucracy (Zernik, 2017).

Using data from large scale Annual Social Surveys of the CBS in Israel, the current research focused on patterns of digital inequality among Israeli mothers between 2014-2019. The main purpose of the current study was to investigate the differences within a group of single mothers according to their SES as well as differences between single and married mothers and whether these patterns are stable or changeable over time. The highest percentage of digital uses adoption was found among high SES mothers, both single and married. The most disadvantaged group was low SES married mothers. Digital inequality among mothers is best explained by social class, rather than by the difficulties and restrictions of single motherhood. Groups were consistent in their pace of digital uses adoption over time. Policymaker implementation of our specific recommendations may produce beneficial effects for promotion of Internet use among single mothers.
