Resumen
El desarrollo de las Tecnologías de la Información y de la Comunicación (TIC) e Internet ha transformado la manera en la que los jóvenes experimentan y disfrutan de su ocio, dando pie al impulso de un ocio digital propio de la sociedad red. Con base a una revisión de los principales estudios realizados hasta el momento en materia de ocio, jóvenes y TIC, este artículo analiza las prácticas de ocio de los jóvenes españoles. Jóvenes nacidos en plena era digital, rodeados de pantallas y que adquieren unas características diferenciadas de sus progenitores y docentes. Jóvenes multitarea, conectados, prosumidores, sociales y móviles que han adoptado las herramientas digitales como algo fundamental en sus actividades de ocio relacionadas principalmente con la socialización y el entretenimiento. En este sentido, se puede concluir que el ocio juvenil se caracteriza por ser, por un lado, un ocio digital social en el que predomina el uso de las redes sociales virtuales; por otro lado, un ocio digital móvil posibilitado por la conectividad sin límites que ofrecen los smartphone; y, por último, un ocio digital lúdico ligado al uso de los videojuegos. Sin embargo, y desde el punto de vista del ocio humanista, este artículo aborda el gap existente entre esa aproximación y la visión comercial de los informes de medición del ocio.

On the basis of a literature review of the main studies carried out so far in leisure, youth and ICT, this article analyzes the leisure practices of Spanish young people. Young people born in the digital era, surrounded by screens and who acquire distinguishing characteristics from their parents and teachers. Multitasking, online, prosumers, social and mobile young people who embrace digital tools as fundamental in their leisure activities primarily related to socialization and entertainment. In this sense, it can be concluded that young people’s leisure is characterized by, on the one hand, a social digital leisure in the predominant use of virtual social networks; on the other hand, a mobile digital leisure made possible by the connectivity limits provided by the smartphone; and, finally, a ludic digital leisure linked to the use of video games. However, from the viewpoint of humanistic leisure, this article addresses the existing gap between this approach and the commercial vision of the measurement reports of leisure.
