“…Nevertheless, it can be stated that "in general, young people use social networks as an extension of their social life and not as a substitute" [20] (p. 124). However, unquestionably "social networks increase the possibility of individual views, opinions and issues being incorporated into the public sphere" [21] (p. 274), a fact that has a determining influence on the construction of users' personalities. Undeniably, "social networks have become the key tool for communication and interaction among young adolescents that has given rise to a new digital coexistence" [22].…”

The ability to respond to complex demands in a hypermediated society such as the current one, in young people who navigate the digital world, demands a combination of practical skills, knowledge, values, and social components mobilized together to influence the ways of communicating, acquiring values, and training. Taking this context into account, the following research aims to discover if there is a relationship between the use of the Internet and the social values perceived by university students highlighting the variables of gender, age, and academic year. Regarding the methodology, the type of study is non-experimental with a correlational design, with a sample of 305 university students from the faculties of human and social sciences, as well as education in the Spanish and Chilean context. To collect data on the variable presence of social values, the “Social Values Questionnaire” was developed, and to collect data on variable Internet use, the “Internet Use Questionnaire” was constructed, considering reliability criteria. The results revealed that most university students that use the Internet can identify social values and use them when they communicate with classmates, friends, and family, although with certain differences when looking at the variables analyzed. In conclusion, it is important to promote the ethical and responsible use of the Internet and social networks among young university students because it promotes the development of personal skills and social values.

The use of mobile applications to track menstrual cycles is becoming more widespread. The proliferation of applications raises concerns about the normalization of the binary construction of gender identities by means of technological innovation and its impact on human rights. Some of these issues include an opaque treatment of users’ personal data, the reproduction of gender stereotypes in design, and algorithmic biases. This study adopts a qualitative approach to examine those implications in the lives of menstruating people in Mexico City. The qualitative study included 32 in-depth interviews with young adult users aged 18 to 25 to learn about their experiences with various menstrual tracking apps. The analysis revealed that users were dissatisfied with the gender bias in the design, with the inadequate treatment of personal data by the apps, regarded as an invasion of privacy, and with app performance, which contributes to standardizing experiences and normalizing binary conceptions of gender by techno-social means. This study suggests that the design of period tracking apps should consider the experiences and needs of menstruating persons in their diversity, based on a non-binary definition of gender. Fair design should begin by engaging with menstruating people in order to improve their experience and quality of life, with their rights at the forefront.

Resumen El uso de aplicaciones móviles para el seguimiento de los ciclos menstruales es cada vez más popular. La proliferación de aplicaciones plantea interrogantes relativas a la normalización de la construcción binaria de las identidades sexo-genéricas a través de desarrollos tecnológicos y su impacto en los derechos humanos. Algunas implicaciones asociadas con el uso de aplicaciones van desde el opaco tratamiento de los datos personales de las personas usuarias, pasando por la reproducción de estereotipos de género en el diseño, hasta los sesgos algorítmicos. A través de un estudio cualitativo, esta investigación analiza tales implicaciones en la vida de las personas menstruantes de la Ciudad de México. El estudio cualitativo consistió en 32 entrevistas en profundidad con personas usuarias adultas jóvenes entre 18 y 25 años, para ahondar sobre su experiencia al utilizar estas herramientas de seguimiento menstrual. A partir del análisis, se observó la incomodidad de las personas usuarias con relación al sesgo de género en el diseño, al tratamiento inadecuado de datos personales por parte de las apps, que afecta la privacidad, y al desempeño de la aplicación, que, a través de la tecnología, contribuye a estandarizar las experiencias y a normalizar las concepciones binarias de género. A partir de este estudio se sugiere que el diseño de aplicaciones para el seguimiento menstrual debe considerar las vivencias y necesidades de las personas menstruantes en su diversidad, partiendo de una concepción no binaria de género. Un diseño basado en la justicia debe partir de acercarse a las personas menstruantes para mejorar su experiencia y su calidad de vida, poniendo en el centro sus derechos.
