Abstract

Objective: to evaluate whether the socioeconomic characteristics of health area students affect motivation in the use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies.
Method: an analytical study was carried out in 2015 with 713 undergraduate students of the health area. The Scale of Evaluation of Motivation Factors with regard to the Integration of Information and Communication Technologies into Teaching was applied in a teaching institution of the metropolitan region of São Paulo.
Results: the Demotivation factor was significant among students with stable partners. Lower family income positively affected the External Control and Internal Control factors. The initial semesters of the courses presented higher means in external control, internal control, control by identification and intrinsic motivation.
Conclusion: the knowledge of the relationship between the socioeconomic characteristics and the motivation factors of students in distance education disciplines contributes to the planning of personalized and contextualized approaches in higher education.
